I'm using Ultimate via a github url on my Mikrotik which now includes an adblocking feature called adlist. I have noticed various url's used though, I would imagine it's just a way of spreading the load so nothing to worry about.

- Thread starter NoNameNoNumber
- Start date
Probably and that would make sense in the circumstances.
I sorted my ad blocking issue anyway. I noticed the DNS on the device wasn't pointing at my ad blocker for some reason like every other device in the house was. Googled the DNS servers and it returned my VPN client which was active for some reason but is also only installed on one user's profile. It must have been auto connecting on every boot. As soon as I disconnected from the VPN adguard home started blocking ads. So all due to my own incompetence

Glad you got sorted. I use DoH now with add blocking all handled by my router so no need for extra stuff. It's very Basic atm but does what I need it to do.

They aren't strictly legitimate though... They are tracking links (and are used by both of the sites you mentioned)
working as intended. they are tracking/affiliate links used for ad targeting.
