Google stuff often hard codes 8.8.8.8, so unless you’re forwarding all port 53 to your pihole, it’s probably still getting out. Do the smart thing like I did and spend thousands of dollars on a proxmox host, virtualize opnsense, and tell Google where to stick it.
I do a black hole for any 8.8.8.8 traffic on my Unifi dream machine, so you don’t need thousands of dollars in equipment. It can be done on Unifi which has cheaper options.
