Hi  
I am using the Blokada VPN with my computer, and I am using the Blokada Cloud for my DNS. Since the blocklists are not running on my phone (like Blokaka 5), what is preventing me from turning all of the Blocklists ON, for maximum security/privacy?

@MisterValentin good question!

The reason why activating all the blocklists may not work is that your phone’s memory might not be able to handle installing all the lists and using them to block the ads.

So phone will shut down Blokada to protect itself, and it will either stop blocking ads all altogether or you’ll start seeing ads some ads slip through.

Many have accomplished 100% adblocking score with just 4-5 blocklists!
