What is personalDNSfilter?

personalDNSfilter is a Java-based DNS filter proxy that intercepts domain name resolution and reroutes requests for filtered hosts to the loopback address. It provides an effective way to block ads, malware, and tracking servers without requiring root access on Android 4.2 and later devices. The tool operates locally, utilizing any upstream DNS server, and does not send data externally. Users can run the filter on individual devices or deploy it centrally as a DNS server across a network
