https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/About-"Why-uBlock-Origin-works-so-much-better-than-Pi‑hole-does%3F" You are not correct. Ublock Origin is superior for tracking protection and also stops the network requests. DNS adblocking cannot stop first party tracking or ads.

The only option (other than mitm-ing yourself and stripping ads from the html maybe) for blocking first party ads or spoofed first party ads is ublock origin on firefox

dns filtering can only block domains, ublock does full cosmetic filtering.

I haven’t been on tpb ever, is it a decent tracker now?
