My dog tore up the remote so we were forced to use the roku app to control the tv.

They’re showing ads on the remote app. It feels like we can never escape this dystopian hellacape.

    Changing DNS isn’t the same thing as a VPN. Your traffic isn’t “tunneled” over DNS, it just changes which server your devices use to look up IP addresses. Your ISP can still see quite a lot, particularly if you’re using plain DNS rather than DNS over HTTPS or DNS over TLS.

      Thank you for explaining this to those who don’t know.

      Perhaps I should have used the word(s) point to instead of traffic.
