Hey! It would be nice if the DNS logs displayed had more info, if a bypassed or redirected domain is DNSSEC validated and its signature (if that’s even possible and allowed), and other useful info as well. And for blocked queries it should be nice to have a description of what each domain does like if “firebase.crashlytics.com” domain gets blocked it’s description should be “Firebase Error Tracking” (or something along those lines) and apply that to native control D filters and as well to the supported 3rd parties one (ESPECIALLY HaGeZi)! I know the description is extremely difficult but at least for common and known tracking and analytics domains from big companies, it should be a useful feature!

Asking this because it stops the whole FB iOS app from connecting to the internet.

please add iran in your geo rules as its currenlty missing
here is the link to iran ip ranges so i could help with it

Hey everyone,

Hi everyone,

Controld app show need update and its 1.5.1.1 in windows but in the dashboard says 1.5.2 is available? What is this mean

Unless I'm missing something there doesn't seem to be the ability to move a complete folder of rules between profiles - had to recreate the folder in the second profile.

Hello Control D Team,
​I am a user from Venezuela and I'd like to suggest some routing optimizations for our region, as well as report aggressive ISP-level blocking from my provider (Fibex Telecom).
​1. Routing & Peering:
Currently, routing from local Venezuelan ISPs to Control D's Anycast nodes can become highly unstable during peak hours, resulting in severe jitter and packet loss. It would be amazing if the network team could look into better peering arrangements or more direct transit routes for Venezuelan ASNs to improve latency and stability.
​2. Severe ISP Censorship (Twitter, Control D, and Windscribe blocked):
Fibex Telecom has recently implemented aggressive blocks. Not only are they blocking Twitter (X) at the DNS level, but they are also blocking access to your own website (controld.com) and especially Windscribe (windscribe.com). I literally cannot load the Windscribe website to manage my accounts without turning on a VPN first.
​While using Control D via Private DNS (DoT/DoH) is the main workaround for general censorship, the ISP actively attempts to intercept, throttle, or block these secure connections. Any future enhancements to bypass this aggressive ISP blocking, or specific Proxy routing rules to ensure your own domains and social media remain accessible here, would be a game-changer.
​Thank you for the continuous updates and great work!
