In the few short hours since I started using #Threads, #DuckDuckGo has already blocked over 200 data tracking attempts. These include things like “headphone status” and “screen density.”

At this point I think it would be more informative to simply display the data they don’t collect. My guess is “nothing”.

How did you block all that? Can duckduckgo block apps from accessing that data? There’s no website version of threads yet right?
Edit: nvm. Duckduckgo has an app tracking blocker built in these days. Coolcoolcool
