Within 5 minutes of usage my pihole instance blocked 100s of request and DDG app protection blocked facebook trackers. This should be illegal

      iirc Google uses motion data to track if you’re walking, biking, car, etc, so I wouldn’t be surprised if Facebook/Meta did the same.

    Are you automatically signed up for this since it’s part of Facebook? I really have no interest in threads at all or do I have to manually opt out of it?
