uBlock Origin is excellent for power users who know filter lists and regex rules. DNDShield is built for everyone else — settings sync automatically across all your devices, video ads skip across multiple platforms out of the box, schedule blocking works without plugins, and family/team controls are built in. If you've ever had to re-configure uBlock on a new browser, that's the gap DNDShield fills.

Both — and more. Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, fingerprinting scripts, and 100+ tracking networks are blocked by default on every plan. Fingerprinting protection is coming soon as a free update; CNAME cloaking protection (catches hidden trackers disguised as first-party content) is planned for Family+; Social Media Isolation is a separate, optional paid add-on.

Advertisers use a trick called CNAME cloaking — they route trackers through a subdomain of your own website so regular blockers can't tell them apart from normal content. It's one of the most effective tracking techniques today and most consumer tools don't handle it (even uBlock Origin only supports this on Firefox, not Chrome). DNDShield Family+ will detect and block these hidden trackers — this is on our roadmap, not live yet.

Free works great on a single browser — unlimited devices but no sync, no cloud dashboard, YouTube ad skip only. Basic adds cloud sync (allow a site once and it's allowed everywhere automatically), a personal dashboard with blocked stats, ad skip on multiple video platforms, and schedule blocking to auto-block distracting sites during work hours.

The AppSumo lifetime deal isn't live yet — it's coming soon, join the waitlist to get early access before the public launch. Once live: if you plan to use DNDShield long-term, it'll be significantly cheaper than subscribing. Tier 1 ($39 one-time) beats the Basic subscription in under 14 months, and every tier includes all core roadmap features — fingerprinting protection, WebRTC leak prevention — at no extra cost, forever. A few advanced extras (Social Media Isolation, Gmail Pixel Block) are optional paid add-ons, even on lifetime tiers.

Yes. Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel any time from your dashboard. No lock-in, no cancellation fees. All paid plans include a 30-day money-back guarantee — if it's not right for you, contact support within 30 days for a full refund, no questions asked.
