I am using Mullvad Browser and they warn people not to add any filter list to uBlock Origin. But how about adding ad blockers at the router level? Does it change my browser fingerprint and make me stand out?

I have 2 packages installed on my OpenWrt router:

  1. Adblock
  2. BCP38 (preventing your network's contribution to some types of DoS/DDoS attack)

Should I remove these packages so I won't stand out?
