  • Tell me what sort of quality education you would get if your university class had increased by 2/3rd in size?

    this is a valid point, but it's not a point i see junior doctors striking for. it's not like the quality of education that a country offers after they've graduated would weigh so heavily on their minds.

    occam's razor applies here. they are worried that there will suddenly be an influx of new doctors that will reduce their own earning capacity.

    your point on expanding facilities first won't help end the strike since it doesn't address the core problem. the government should simply look to sneakily boil the frog here (and this is only because being the last in a list of doctor:patient ratio is never a good thing).

  • all good info. and all agreed. but the issue in this post isn't the vpn functionality.

    it's what the adguard android app does in the background when the vpn, itself, is disconnected. that's when these rogue requests were sent.

  • this is a possibility. one that i haven't accounted for.

    but is there any literature that verifies this? the closest I've found in context is this page, and I'm not able to resolve what you're saying with whats on there: https://adguard.com/kb/general/ad-filtering/filter-policy/

    i don't have enough info yet to update the post with this conjecture.

  • the vpn wasn't connected at the time these requests were sent. that's how DDG captures these requests, by using the vpn slot itself. these requasts were sent by the adguard app in the background when it was deactivated.

    the data sent to third-party ttrackers had nothing to do with the vpn functionality or of other apps funneling their data through it.

    this observation has also been corroborated by another user using other means elsewhere in the comments. do give it a dekko, too.

  • i get what you're saying, but the vpn was inactive when the app sent these requests. DDG was active at the time and using the VPN slot.

    so it isn't the vpn functionality, per se, of the app that's doing anything here.

  • i can see where you're going with this but, no, these are not sites that i've visited. for example, my country has its own amazon domain and verizon does not operate where i live.

    nope, this is all the adguard vpn android app on its own.

  • i dont know why it'sa at such a low resolution here. it's fine on my phone.

    here, ill try uploading a fresh non-stretched single-screen screenshot to see if the size was the issue.

    (i don't know how it will turn out myself until after i post it.)

  • would you have done this with the ad guard vpn deactivated but the app still running in the background?

    I've been using the app for a few montha now and it's only today that it got flagged in the DDG report. it's not shown up before.
