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?

    Not op ( that guy was being intolerably rude ) but I’m not surprised that ddg is reporting that a vpn app is sending all these requests, the very nature of a VPN app is to capture and proxy all your traffic, so it will end up proxy all the tracking requests on your system. These likely came from a browser ( any site with an Amazon button for example will likely show as an amazing tracking hit )

    In short, your VP is likely not selling your data.
