Protection layers
| StealthADB Service Adblock | Blocks ad and tracker domains system-wide. Works without the VPN connected. |
| Stealth VPN Adblock | Routes DNS through Stealth filtering while the VPN tunnel is active. Pairs with StealthADB Service Adblock for maximum coverage. |
Adblock Options screen
The full options screen shows current status, both layer toggles, and manual blocklist sync. Status text reflects which engines are active (disabled, StealthADB Service only, VPN only, or both).
Tip: Enable StealthADB Service Adblock for always-on blocking. Add Stealth VPN Adblock when you want filtering inside the encrypted tunnel as well.
