In the few short hours since I started using #Threads, #DuckDuckGo has already blocked over 200 data tracking attempts. These include things like “headphone status” and “screen density.”

    What is the app called? Are you referring to their browser?

      Yup, their browser. Had to check what apps were tracking stuff when I saw this post and for example Spotify was getting blocked twice every second while I was listening to music.

      I have 24 000 blocked tracking attempts since installing the browser a couple of weeks ago.

        Thanks! Can’t believe I haven’t heard about this sooner. Cheers

      Yes, it looks like there is an App Tracking setting in it.
