Regarding Instagram:
It’s very, very likely that they’re shipping parts of their tracking and ads using the same https encrypted domain they use to ship content.
It’ll not be possible to get rid of these ads and trackers without also blocking the content or cracking open the https encryption which we won’t do for obvious reasons listed here.
Something anyone can do at any time is try setting their location to an EU member state. GDPR and similar regulations will then most likely be applied to you as well. As a result of that there are less ads and trackers active even on xiaomi devices.
I still want to hear your thoughts on streaming though.
I’m seated and waiting for hours now.
