Yeah, the in-built blocking is amazing for a fire and forget kind of deal. I'd still rather block my network traffic myself, but when I'm on the go and don't have control over what network I'm in (or really, what's on my device) this is the way to go.
Yeah I use this function mainly on portable devices. At home just block it network wide.
