I know these two technologies are different, but they boast the same selling points: block ads, trackers, and malware.
I recently discovered a third-party DNS service called “NextDNS” for my Android phone. While tinkering with it and researching it, I noticed it was pretty good at blocking ads in my mobile browser and for some of my Android apps as well.
My question here today is what is the difference between NextDNS’s blocking of ads, trackers, and malware vs. Proton’s NetShield technology that also claims to do the same?
I humbly submit that I could have no idea what I’m talking about. Can someone please help me understand?
