Description
DMS Media is a newspaper/website publisher. It owns the Daily Heil amongst others.

The DM references this domain - dmgmediaprivacy.co.uk. At first glance you'd assume it relates to collecting GDPR preferences etc, but they are in fact serving ads from it 

https://cmp.dmgmediaprivacy.co.uk/2.7.7/iife/mol-ads-cmp.min.js


Seems even the Mail's domain names lie :D

Neither the bare domain or www have associated A records. cmp is served via Akamai.

Blocking the entire zone

Commit Message: ADBLK-5 Block dmgmediaprivacy.co.uk

It's a zone run by the Daily Mail's owners, and despite the name "mediaprivacy" appears to be being used to serve ads
