The vanilla apps are constantly making bloat connections. (Atleast 8k-10k on adguard app per day)

Those connections are not being made. AdGuard is blocking them and then logging them for your review. That’s it’s job.

The best way to prevent them from even trying to make these connections is to use a 3rd party app. But both companies try to stop you from doing that because they profit off of those connections.
