What about running your own?
You can run your own ad-blocking DNS server at home, and some people enjoy doing it. It needs a computer switched on day and night, so electricity is the cost that never stops. Here is roughly what a year of power costs for typical home-server hardware, at 33p per kWh:
| Hardware | Average draw | Per year | Electricity per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 | ~4 W | 35 kWh | £11.56 |
| Mini PC (Intel N100 or thin client), the most common choice | ~8 W | 70 kWh | £23.13 |
| Repurposed small PC or old desktop | ~30 W | 263 kWh | £86.72 |
| Enterprise rack server (1U/2U) | ~100 W | 876 kWh | £289.08 |
That's electricity only. Buying the hardware, keeping it updated and fixing it when it breaks are on top, and a box at home only protects you at home. With Listblock, the server, updates and phone protection away from home are all included.
Cancelling is easy
You subscribe and cancel in Google Play, not with us. To cancel: open the Google Play Store, tap your profile picture, choose Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions, pick Listblock and tap Cancel subscription. If you cancel during the 14-day free trial, you won't be charged.
Deleting your Listblock account doesn't cancel the subscription, so cancel in Google Play first. See Delete account.
Who a subscription covers
A subscription is £17.99 a year per person. You buy it through Google Play on Android, and it's tied to the Google account you buy with. You get one unique DNS setting, which you can register twice: on your phone, and on your home router.
Setting up your home router is part of setup. That covers everyone else at home: TVs, consoles, laptops and other devices on your Wi-Fi.
The setting is for you, not for sharing. You can register it in two places. If it's used in more places at once than you've registered, we'll email you first, at the address on your account, to let you know. We won't suspend the account as a first step. The terms have the detail.
