I've been using ctrld for a few years and my DNS resolver always shows as "netactuate" when I check it. Woke up this morning and noticed all my adblocking and redirects weren't working and I thought maybe my daemon on my gateway had died in an upgrade or something. Checked it and it's up and working fine. DNS check is showing "GTT Communications Inc". If I stop it I fall back to Cloudflare which is my default fallback. I have the profile loaded on my phone and iPad as well as the daemon on my laptop since I travel with them and use them on different networks frequently. With the gateway daemon stopped my travel devices all show GTT still and my profiles for them aren't working. If I stop the daemon or disable the profile they fall back to Cloudflare like they should as I have it manually set on those devices also. So it seems like something on the ctrld network is routing things incorrectly or differently. I noticed on the status page that instead of going through Miami like usual I'm being routed through Dallas.
