    And I just remembered I’m not running NextDNS or PiHole on this phone.

    I wonder if Android is as lax as iOS on the cross-app sharing.

      I have zero social media apps or games on my phone but my pihole is still getting a hell of a workout. This is nuts.

        Also consider outside your home too - either permantly VPNing back through your home network, or (ie for Android) Tracker Control, which will block most ad / sdk / geo trackers that it knows about.
