I recently set up a Pi-Hole for the first time, but I spun it down pretty quickly. On desktop / mobile I already have client-side ad-blocking, and it's not like the Pi-Hole can block embedded ads in adware apps like YouTube on iOS, so I just couldn't really justify keeping it powered.

I suppose if you have a house full of Samsung / Huawei / etc. IoTs that you really need to keep connected to the Internet for whatever reason, I could sort of see it, but I don't and I genuinely can't figure out other use cases for it. I'm far from a networking whiz though. Am I missing something?
