A simple network sniffer is enough to figure out what sites the app is connecting to, then you can just block them on the router.

If you are using Android, you can do that easily right on your phone with PCAPdroid, it’s on the play store. No root required.

It’s a nasty piece of crap that come preloaded on any phone (android, at least) and Windows-PC here.

Nah they do a good job. They are having intrusive popups asking you to subscribe to their paid tier for scheduled searches and real time protection, but if you know what you want/need, the free version is alright.

If we want to start our own traditions, why the hell are we copying reddit yet again?
