Hi,

I've been running the WireGuard client on my GALAXY note 9 (android 10) and have set it up with DNS blocking for malware and ads. It's been working perfectly for weeks, and I enjoy a more responsive connection and better battery life than with Mullvad's client.

Tonight, I noticed some ads popping up, and a quick visit to an ad-blocking testing site shows that my ad blocking is at 9% compared to the usual 97%.

I tried different servers in the US as well as in Europe, but I experienced the same effect on content blocking.

I then connected with Mullvad's client, and my ad blocking is back at 97%.

Can anyone make sense of what's going on? Thanks in advance for your input.
