Those exist. Use dns based adblockers. You can pick from a variety of services already out there or run your own with pihole.
Yeah, though ... those don't always work and it is entirely possible to break them if they become overly "pesky" for the corporations.
DNS based blocking only works for regular DNS requests.
At this point, any app that wanted to bypass that could use DoH/DoT+ECH to completely bypass your DNS and thus the blocking it provides. With these tools, all you'd see is an outgoing TLS connection to a remote IP; all other data is encrypted.
