No Block Page warning when blocking Advertising and Trackers

Per support (case 71653) there is no way of having a block page display for sites blocked under the advertising category. This category would include GoogleAds and Doubleclick, which will comprise nearly 100% of first results on a Google search. We recommend that DNSF add a note next to the Advertise category toggle to warn of this so partners\admins understand the ramifications.

The description has been updated for both Advertising and Trackers. Also, we've added an option to choose Moderate which would allow GoogleAds and Doubleclick.

I wonder if they could develop a way to direct your browser to the destination URL. Probably some security implications but if they already know what the destination URL is, doing a URL redirect seems possible. Add a wait whenever an Ad url is detected, identify the destination and then forward the request to the full site and resolve there instead of the ad domain.
Its possible this could require a proxy configuration to make happen though or even browser tie-ins.
