Hi, i select the ultimate security blocklist of our beloved Rethink dns , i click on simple/security and i choose the 2 security blocklists : full and extra and i put this doh dns address in my browser :

https://sky.rethinkdns.com/1:2B9_A__9-P8AQIBgABAAAwBqAFA=

and i disabled my ublock origin adblocker and i go to this site to test if Rethink dns blocks ads because i don't like to block ads and trackers with dns because it can cause problems in sites and i prefer to use adblocker extensions to block ads like ublock origin where i can disable the blocking of trackers which are essential for the normal functioning of some sites and the dns server is used to block only viruses malware without blocking ads and i discover the results of the test on this site :

https://d3ward.github.io/toolz/adblock

i discover that the security blocklist of Rethink dns blocks 97% of ads for example Rethink dns security blocklist blocks a google service that is essential for the normal functioning of google services: adservice.google.com!

google is not a security threat and I think the Rethink dns security blocklist should not block google services!

so we hope please that the 2 security blocklists of Rethink dns full and extra will not block ads and trackers please especially the essential trackers of google, thank you very much :)

Thanks for the report.

sky is running in restricted mode to save on costs (see). It is likely something is blocking when it shouldn't (or vice versa). We'll have to rewrite large portions of serverless-dns to have sky at an acceptable price point. We plan to do so in the coming year.

Aieee sorry Mr @ignoramous !! I didn't know that you fund out free amazing Rethink DNS from your own pocket since there are not enough donations or sponsorships from large organizations .....

in this case, it's sad that free Rethink dns costs you efforts and also money and even if I use free Rethink dns, I think that Rethink dns should immediately become paid, or limit requests to 10k requests per month for example for users who do not pay ....
