I've never heard of Tubi before

Free streaming service launches in the UK to rival Netflix and Disney+

tubitv.com/home

Tubi, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch’s Fox Corporation, is already popular in the US, where it says it has nearly 80 million monthly active users

It will launch in the UK with more than 20,000 movies and TV episodes on-demand, including content from Disney, Lionsgate, NBCUniversal and Sony Pictures Entertainment, as well as a slate of Tubi Originals.

Streaming services such as Tubi look like they’re the future

It’s clear that with Netflix and Disney+’s ad-based plans, along with the entrance of Tubi, as well as the growing emergence of Samsung TV Plus and LG Channels, the market has charged. Subscribers don’t seem to care where the content comes from anymore, just that they can keep their bills relatively low

So, checking out Tubi and seems you can block the adverts from showing 😉

Watching it via browser so, browser extensions(stops tracking), VPN, and custom DNS filters I had set-up already seems to be blocking all ads from being shown

When an ad is meant to show the screen goes black for less than a second then whatever I have on resumes

Win, win

Muhahahahaha Murdoch 😆

This secure DNS can stop ads(maybe not ads for streaming services though)

adblock.dns.mullvad.net/dns-qu

In chrome privacy & security - use secure connections to look up sites(secure DNS) - toggle on - add custom DNS provider - input that URL and hit enter

Android

Network & internet - scroll down private DNS - tap private DNS provider hostname - input

Hit enter

@ecksmc we have tubi and watch it quite a bit. But I am very disappointed to know that Rupert Murdoch owns it.

@Heavymetalmotherindisguise it does state that he owns it in the terms and conditions & privacy policy

Its not a seekrit or anything

@ecksmc I never looked to be honest. But maybe I should start checking those on all my channels.
