"Known to collect" is going to be vastly different from what's actually being collected. It's more realistically just serving ads, getting some crash/error reporting. But because it's all under Google, it's going to show up as Google. DDG/other blockers won't know the difference.

Are those exactly what it’s tracking or what it’s “known” to track?
Former? Bad
Latter? This post is misrepresenting at best and downright malicious at worst.
Hello! Promise no malice intended.
I was just playing around with the app and noticed duckduck go blocking a ton of new tracking attempts.
I can only go by what was stated in the app as "attempts" hence my post.
Someone who understand how duckduckgos tracking blocker work might know better however. Perhaps you are 100% right.
Each of those is for a valid feature of the app, and you can disable those you don't like.
This entire post is a thinly veiled scare tactic. "well I'm not saying it's a problem, but look what they're doing!! I'm just asking questions here" kind of bullshit
Seems more like you're projecting a reality that isn't the case. Moreso projecting a weird defensive attitude over a social media application when people are, understandably, concerned about their data privacy. I think we should keep this type of attitude over on the Reddit side.
