Pi-hole functions similarly to a network firewall [dubious – [[Talk:Pi-hole#network firewall|discuss]]], meaning that advertisements and tracking domains are blocked for all devices behind it, whereas traditional advertisement blockers only run in a user's browser, and remove advertisements only on the same machine.
Advertising can be blocked by using a DNS server which is configured to block access to domains or hostnames which are known to serve ads by spoofing the address.

Another use is to block ad serving sites, either using a host's file-based sinkhole [9] or by locally running a DNS server (e.g., using a Pi-hole). Local DNS servers effectively block ads for all devices on the network.
