Stop Ads on Your TV & Network Forever (Pi-hole Tutorial)
In this video I use Pi-Hole running on a Raspberry Pi to block ads across all of my devices on my local network. This solution works on most advertisements and is able to block ads on Smart TV's like in Samsung's "Smart Hub".
Important Links:
Raspberry Pi Imager: https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/

Some Commands Used:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
sudo apt install -y docker-compose-plugin
Troubleshooting (Only if you get a DNS error):
sudo systemctl stop systemd-resolved
sudo systemctl disable systemd-resolved
sudo rm /etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 1.1.1.1" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf
