I usually monitor my network traffic for a few days after installing any new app. If I see connections to unknown servers or constant pings in the background, that’s a red flag. It’s not about paranoia — I just like knowing where my data goes. You can learn a lot from basic tools like GlassWire or even your router logs. Sometimes the “privacy-friendly” apps end up the noisiest ones.

I totally get that. A lot of “free” ad blockers turn out to be data-hungry in disguise. I started digging into this after I noticed one of my old blockers sending traffic to weird domains. These days, I only use ones that are transparent about what they collect and why. According to what I found, Adblock360 is not malware, and it doesn’t track or sell user data, which is a relief. Still, I think everyone should read those policies carefully — it’s worth the extra two minutes.

I’ve been reading more privacy policies lately, and honestly, most of them sound super vague. I get that ad blockers need to process some data to filter ads, but I’m worried about what else they might be collecting. I had one extension before that claimed to “protect my privacy,” yet it sent browsing data to third parties. Now I’m hesitant to install anything unless I know exactly what’s going on behind the scenes.
