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?
Not op ( that guy was being intolerably rude ) but I'm not surprised that ddg is reporting that a vpn app is sending all these requests, the very nature of a VPN app is to capture and proxy all your traffic, so it will end up proxy all the tracking requests on your system. These likely came from a browser ( any site with an Amazon button for example will likely show as an amazing tracking hit )
In short, your VP is likely not selling your data.
i get what you're saying, but the vpn was inactive when the app sent these requests. DDG was active at the time and using the VPN slot.
so it isn't the vpn functionality, per se, of the app that's doing anything here.
