my apologies for the long screenshot. i had purchased adguard's vpn service for five years since its primary adguard service is well know in the iapple ecosystem.

on android, though, their app appears to send data to a lot of third-parties. has it always been this compromised? am i a fool to go for their vpn services as well?

You need to contact them, if they connect to known to-be-blocked sites to get their IPs.

Googerteller does this:

Note: Find it ironic or not, but to query the list of all Google IPs/subnets, this needs to contact one Google domain, actually. (That request does not emit a sound, though.)

And I would ask DDG how their "tracker blocker" works and if it would also block such requests.0
