What do you think about Adblock Luna?

VPN
1

Hello

I install Luna on my daughter’s iPad Air 1, as she plays games and watches videos over Youtube.

I installed it with the instructions over their site, by installing VPN Profile, trusting the root certificate etc.

Will it have any harm to the iPad or can we experience any privacy issues?

What are your opinions?

Thanks

Weren’t they caught selling user data. Also beware, they will comment on this post telling you it’s safe. Don’t use it.

I have a premium subscription with NextDNS, which I find to be better than AdGuard for my iPhone and other iOS devices.

Yes it will harm her iPad’s yt app and change her location to Canada

Good (better) alternative: NextDNS.

Does her iPad have 4G/5G, or just WiFi?

If it’s Wifi only, look at making a Pi-Hole. You get the bonus of blocking ads on anything on your network as well.

Thanks i will consider that but I think they sell anonymous usage stats and behaviors right?

Yeah I was also checking that. Thanks

by the way what do you think about the performance compared to cloudflare?

11

I just tried NextDNS but I’m still getting ads even though I followed all the instructions. Does it still work?

12

Fix you must seeing ads I despise

Thank I have heard that but I need to get a raspberry pi. I think I can use it only at home right?

I highly doubt it’s actually anonymous. If it was, they wouldn’t be kicked off the app store. Google, and Facebook should also be kicked off the app store as they sell users usage behavior anonymously.

The company that owns it is also an ad intelligence / usage intelligence company.

Luna also bypassed apple’s restriction on stopping root privileges’ by forcing users to install it from a website instead.

Apparently, with a MITM proxy, and a root profile they can see whatever everything you do in plaintext. There are also other posts about this.

I don’t use Cloudflare. I’m very satisfied with NextDNS. Performance is good and the options/interface are very easy and intuitive. Try it. There’s a free plan (I’ve subscribed to “Pro” - I don’t think there is any difference in performance).

Hi still getting ads even though i followed all the instructions, I’m dad.

You can use anything that can run Linux. Yes it works mainly at home.
