Is there a way to block Google Ads on the firebox?
I saw this post, but this is from 2 years, so just want to get an updated answer.

I now use the Brave web browser which reduces ads, including removing them from YouTube.
Thank you, I never heard of Brave browser. But is there a way to block it from within Firebox?
Only the ways listed in the posts to which you provided a link.
Ok thank you, since you were the one that answered the one in my link.
You can also find on the Internet or create a list of domains that you want to block.
Note that there is a limit of 1024 or 2048 domain names that you can have in a config, depending in the firewall model. So you can't have huge lists.
Set up an Alias with that list and have a HTTPS packet filter policy denying those. You can import a list into an Alias.
One can block domain name lookups in a DNS proxy - Query Names.
But you need to add each domain name manually as there is currently no way to import a list into it.
And, if you have DNSWatch enabled, DNS policies in a config are currently not processed.
ok thanks again
