I’m just sharing here this app I use always on my phone, and I don’t see many people talking about it.
It’s similar to DuckDuckGo app feature that block trackers across all the device, but this one is focused only on that, it also allows you to add your custom tracker URLs to block and monitor every request being made.
It’s open source and available on F-Droid: https://f-droid.org/packages/dev.clombardo.dnsnet/
GitHub: https://github.com/t895/DNSNetIt enables a VPN to intercept requests, so it can block URLs of trackers across all your apps. The app provides a list of URLs as you open it for the first time, you can choose a few options between less or more aggressive.
Obs.: The app don’t tell, but when you add a custom URL you need to disable and enable it again.
Adaway also has a no root mode that does this as well.
I don’t see many people talking about it.
Maybe because we have been doing it with DNS66 for 15 years now
I hear you, but if you look at the dns66 page on f-droud, it says development has stopped and dnsnet is the successor to dns66. So OP has linked a relevant package and dns66 shouldn’t be talked about given as how it is a dying project
Oh really? I didn’t know that. Thanks for the info.
