Firefox Bypassing NextDNS?

I've noticed that if I use the attached settings in Firefox it seems to bypass sites I want to be blocked in NextDNS. What am I missing here? Shouldn't the blocking still work?

NextDNS is configured on my Unifi UDM-Pro if that matters. I'm using https://github.com/nextdns/nextdns

    That particular Firefox setting will be using NextDNS without your custom settings. Just keep it disabled or use custom provider string from my.nextdns.io browser setup, not “NextDNS” option.

      R P M Drats. Ok. Seems like an easy way to circumvent the filters. Thank you.

      Aaron Westley Ah right, you’re wanting to secure that device. Difficult to stop that from being set. 
      Good luck with your endeavour.
