Yup. My naive impression of it is “we don’t trust our code to not back door your device, so we let you turn the highest risk portions of it off now. Mostly, gifs, because we’re don’t know how to safely parse a 35 year old standard.”
Holy cow how have I not heard of testflight installation method with which yattee is being distributed!
Reading up more on it, seems you need to be an ios developer to use it. Beh.
Thanks for mentioning yatee, as adguard is severely lacking in that ads are rarely blocked.
I don’t think I’ve seen a single ad since I bought AdGuard premium and configured it properly. It feels less capable than uBlock Origin but I find it honestly good enough on iPhone
> VPNs do not effectively solve this issue. Most modern browsers can detect the geographic location of a device based on data from GPS, available Wi-Fi networks and GSM/CDMA cell IDs and will submit this information to websites requesting it.
Did I miss something? Even the ad-tech browser will ask the user before sharing that?
I block the Mozilla positioning trackers. They were getting over a million request per month from my household. It’s just a regular API call from any website and doesn’t need any browser permissions.
Nice app! I created configuration profiles for convenience at https://encrypted-dns.party but an app with providers pre-configured is way more convenient. Some smaller providers that come to mind for ad-blocking: Adhole, AhaDNS, BlahDNS, LibreDNS, and Usable Privacy DNS.
Thank you. I have put these in a list I'm creating to add to the app. I only recently learned to make iOS apps and SwiftUI is rather still new. Rather I wanted to learn how make apps so I thought might as well make something people can use. I plan on making it much better UI wise along with region-specific DNS lists or some method of sorting them.
