I’ve been trying running a VPN on my phone as a matter of course lately (Proton). I’m assuming it not only keeps your ISP from knowing where you’re going but, more importantly, advertisers and trackers as well.

…or do I have that last bit wrong?
It can as a side option. I think Proton has something like this. It is done on DNS level. You can use something like NextDNS to achieve this things without VPN.
