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?

Any possibility that these are apps or sites that you use while using that VPN? And maybe DDG is also blocking it? I don't use any of that stuff so I'm just taking a guess.

i can see where you're going with this but, no, these are not sites that i've visited. for example, my country has its own amazon domain and verizon does not operate where i live.

nope, this is all the adguard vpn android app on its own.
