RE: Blocking Tiktok via Firewall Application Control and Endpoint Application and Web policies

Hello Ian, 

This may not be possible for the endpoint side as there's no option to block it, but blocking ads on a web browser can be done through a firewall by creating a new rule under web policy.

You may refer to this Community Recommended Reads for the steps. 

Hi Glen,

I have those features in place and block a lot of adverts even some to that site i posted the screenshots from, so there is something inconsistent in the searching function in the XG.

Hello Ian,

To avoid confusion with the original thread, I have split the community post into a different one. 
We'll further check your claims and get back to you. about ads-related queries for the firewall.

Hi Ian,

Good day,would it be possible to elaborate/further explain the inconsitency in searching.Thank you

The inconsistencies are

1/. blocks some ads

2/.does not block embed ads or applications eg TikTok.

that is why I added these to the original TikTok block issue.
