*The GAFAM is an acronym used to describe the five multinational technology companies Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple and Microsoft, taking the first letters of all these companies. The GAFAM are sometimes referred to as the Big Five due to them being the five most profilific companies in the world. Although in some sectors some of the five companies may be in direct competition, they offer different products or services overall while presenting some common characteristics that deserve to bring them together under the same acronym: by their size, they are particularly influential on the American and European Internet both economically and politically and socially and are regularly the subject of criticism or prosecution on tax matters, abuses of dominant positions and the non-respect of Internet users' privacy.*

NOTE: Youtube advertisements are pretty difficult to block trough DNS, as they mainly use a couple of domains for delivering advertisements, but they may also use those same domains for delivering other types of contents that you might not want to block.
You can also easily use the modified [pihole regex installer script](https://github.com/mmotti/pihole-regex) by [@mmoti](https://github.com/mmotti) by executing this terminal command from your raspberry Pi Pi-hole server.
<summary>Can I use it with [NextDNS](https://nextdns.io/)?</summary>
<p>Yep ! It is available in their selection of domains list, labeled as ¨No Google¨. NextDNS is using the wildcard-domains format, so you will have to manually wishlist some specific services, as it will block everything Google related.</p>
<summary>Can I use it with my other ads/domains blocker program ?</summary>
<p>Surely! If it does indeed support the host or domains type of filters. Import it manually, or [click on this link](https://subscribe.adblockplus.org/?location=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nickspaargaren/no-google/master/google-domains&title=no-google) if you are using a web browser extension.</p>
