Explanation

The Quantum Ad List is a comprehensive, domain-based blocklist specifically designed for DNS-level filtering. According to its GitLab repository at https://gitlab.com/The_Quantum_Alpha/the-quantum-ad-list, the list is actively maintained—with multiple commits per week—which easily meets and exceeds the update frequency requirement of 10 updates per month. This frequent update schedule ensures that the list remains current and effective at blocking new ad and tracking domains as they emerge.

Because the Quantum Ad List focuses solely on domain-based rules, it is ideally suited for DNS-level blocking, avoiding the complications of cosmetic or script-based rules that do not translate well in a DNS environment. Adding this blocklist would provide users with enhanced privacy and a more robust defense against ads and trackers across their network, without the need to manually manage thousands of individual user rules.
