# Pi-Hole - Youtube Ads Blocker
This script will block all the Youtube's advertisement in your network. It must be used with Pi-Hole.
## Installation
- Download the script
```sh
git clone https://github.com/deividgdt/ytadsblocker.git
```
- Move to the directory
```sh
cd ytadsblocker
```
- Make the script executable
```sh
chmod a+x ytadsblocker.sh
```
- Execute the script as root with the option: -a install
```sh
./ytadsblocker.sh -a install
```
- You can install the script using the aggressive mode. The aggressive mode will block every googlevideo's subdomain. Use carefully since this could lead to Youtube stop working.
```sh
./ytadsblocker.sh -a install -m aggressive
```
- Start the service and that's it
```sh
systemctl start ytadsblocker
```
## Installation: Pihole container
If you are going to use the script in a Pihole Docker Container, you must install and start the script as follow:
- Go into the Pihole container
```sh
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/deividgdt/ytadsblocker/master/ytadsblocker.sh
```
- Give it execution permission
```sh
chmod +x ytadsblocker
```
- Install and start the script
```sh
./ytadsblocker.sh -a install
./ytadsblocker.sh -a start &
```
## Legacy: prior to Pihole 5.0
- First, consider upgrading Pihole to get nice and brand new features
- Just download the legacy version and follow the same previous steps, changing the name from `ytadsblocker` to `ytadsblocker_legacy`.
## More info
- Version 3.0 just works with Pihole 5.0 or newer. If you're running a lower version of Pihole, you must upgrade it.
