DIY ESP32-C3 Adblock Device Gains Attention
Original: ESP32-C3 Adblock
A developer has released an open-source project that turns the ESP32-C3, a low-cost Wi-Fi microcontroller, into a network-wide ad blocker. The project is available on GitHub, where hardware hobbyists are discussing it as a cheap alternative to commercial options like the Pi-hole. The ESP32-C3 typically costs only a few dollars, making the build accessible to anyone interested in filtering ads across their home network.
Why now: Makers and privacy-minded users are drawn to an unusually cheap, compact way to block ads across an entire network.
