Hey,
I’m currently using Tracker Control (https://trackercontrol.org/) on Android and I really like it. It allows me to see what app are trying to call which trackers. If I have an issue with any app I can check its logs and unblock some trackers to fix it temporarily. The problem is that it’s working as a VPN so I can’t use any VPN with it. I see some VPN services offer features like “tracker blocking” but none I checked had features like TC. Anyone knows of a VPN that also has nice tracker monitoring/blocking feature?
It needs to update hosts filter lists, which is a root level operation.
That said, my pixel 2xl no longer has root (via magisk) but it still has AdAway. Since it was installed with root privs, it still has them. I will eventually patch the boot partition. I just haven’t gotten around to it, and LineageOS for microg updates multiple times per month.
