At least from my experience, with a proper blacklist it shuts down a ton more stuff. Not just pure ads, but a ton of tracking and websites/apps phoning home too.

For me it’s nice, because I can just apply it to the entire network, and I don’t have to worry about trying to explain how this works to my family
