Whenever I turn on the DuckDuckGo “VPN” to stop tracking by third party apps, I’m amazed at how many request are happening from apps I hardly use and many I don’t expect (though I should know that something can still be open source Free Software and that the open code contains surveillance capitalsm tracking in order to fund the project)
