Hey, thank you so much for mentioning this!

Some people just take it way too far to the point that it starts actively harming them Yes, I agree.

Addiction to porn is harmful (just like any addiction), it causes the addict to be more lonely, and think of women as sex objects.

Masturbation addiction is a huge time waster(again just like any addiction).

I unfortunately watched porn too, and I regret every second I wasted watching porn.
Supported sex trafficking without even knowing, and ruined my life with it.

Not proud of what I did, I am disgusted.

Ah, it makes sense, ddg browser uses builtin webview, of course it is lighter.

You can keep using DDG app protection, but you can reduce the battery usage of tracker control by going into settings and disabling “find new trackers”

This option finds and shows you the trackers each app has, disabling it will stop finding the trackers but will continue to block them.

I’m curious to see how long I can keep it out of landfill. I’m trying for 2028, as a personal challenge. That will be almost 10 years out of a $200 phone

All the best with that.

Good for you, that’s great.

But have you tried TrackerControl ? It can restrict internet from apps, and block trackers.

I heavily recommend it, since you can also monitor and block system apps .

DDG App Tracking Protection isnt as effective, but it is extremely easy to use and breakage is minimal.

As for the DDG browser, I only use it when the website I am visiting doesnt work on firefox.

I dont think this will only apply to facebook. they also own whatsapp, instagram, and messenger.

Yet, instead of fixing the moderation problem they have, they just focus on targeting adblockers, because removing pornographic ads HaRmS the EcOnOmY and the ChiLDerN!!1

They even made another entire manifest version to make adblockers perform worse, but no real changes to moderation.

Haha, thanks for exposing yourselves!
Their logic probably was like:
how can we make our users trust us?
How about we tell them that we can view the footage of any ring camera for security purposes? They will love us! They will think we are the ones whom keep this earth safe! We will be their saviors !

Very happy to see it backfire.

The same thing with muslims and immigrants.

IMMIGRANT SAYS BAD WORDS TO AN AMERICAN!!!
“MUSLIMS” ARE BEING RACIST WITH TRUMP!!!

reading such headlines are enough to convince someone to change their opinion on something.

This is a very common problem unfortunately.
