Pi-Hole
Presented By: James Conroy
Are you tired of seeing advertisements at home?
Do you have a raspberry pi lying around collecting dust?
This base talk will give an overview of the pi-hole project, how to install it (bare metal, or via docker), and how to use the project to block ads on your whole home network.
Pi-hole is a Linux network-level advertisement and Internet tracker blocking application which acts as a DNS sinkhole and optionally a DHCP server, intended for use on a private network.
It is designed for low-power embedded devices with network capability, such as the Raspberry Pi, but can be installed on almost any Linux machine.
Pi-hole has the ability to block traditional website advertisements as well as advertisements in unconventional places, such as smart TVs and mobile operating system advertisements.
