Windows Updates, Defender, Edge | Worth | Bug Report.

  Can this effect Windows Updates, Windows Defender and Edge?

I know some people say that adding multiple blocklists is redundant, but I’ve noticed that the dashboard automatically marks items as blocked by multiple lists. So, I guess it’s fine to use multiple rules. That rule applies to browser adblockers like uBlock Origin, where using multiple lists might cause conflicts or issues. This is a separate case, right?

Edit: I was watching a video by ThePcSecurityChannel and they recommended some domains, should I add them to blocklist without bricking Updates and Defender? They are 
 

data.microsoft.com

msftconnecttest.com

azureedge.net

activity.windows.com

bingapis.com

msedge.net

assets.msn.com

scorecardresearch.com

edge.microsoft.com

data.msn.com

 

 
I also blocked some TLDs

 

 I was watching HotCakeX's list, and it doesn't seem to have any domains with those TLDs.

 


Does Windows Respects DNS?

I used the DNS over HTTPs method 

 

If my main goal is to stop Windows spying, would using something like Portmaster be better than this? (ig we it's also possible to set up NextDNS with Portmaster.) What would be the best way to set it up so that Windows won’t bypass it and track?

Not sure if it's a bug or something but the thing over here:
 

and here:

Doesn't match up, there is a difference in last two digits, If I set up the address form "The DNS over HTTPs" section, it shows up I am using Next DNS with no Profile.
