          <h2>What is AdGuard Home?</h2>

<blockquote><em>AdGuard Home is a network-wide software for blocking ads and tracking. After you set it up, it&#39;ll cover ALL your home devices, and you don&#39;t need any client-side software for that.<br />
<br />
It operates as a DNS server that re-routes tracking domains to a &ldquo;black hole&rdquo;, thus preventing your devices from connecting to those servers. It&#39;s based on software we use for our public AdGuard DNS servers, and both share a lot of code. -<a href="https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardHome" target="_blank">https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardHome</a></em></blockquote>
