    Actually this is true with anything closed sourced since they are probably using their own internal, encrypted DNS look-ups.

    FOSS fixes that.

      They don’t even need to do that, since the ads come from the same domain as the app’s content. Some apps use their own DNS resolver but a lot of the time it’s for other reasons, like preventing DNS hijacking by ensuring DNSSEC records are validated.
