            Wouldn’t a company VPN bypass all that even though you are using your own internet connection to connect to the outside world?

              Typically yes, assuming that the company VPN sets DNS to a set of company DNS servers. That is how my company’s works and several others I’ve worked for in the past.

              Maybe, I guess I don’t know enough to answer that. I do know that being on a company VPN isn’t always a requirement, though.

              Either way, I’m not trying to argue for one approach to ad blocking over another as a one-size-fits-all solution, I just wanted to point out that it’s possible to have more control over the network than the computer in some cases.
