I set up a Raspberry Pi 3 with AdguardHome for a friend of mine, and told him to disconnect everything at home and try to watch anything on his phone, being the only device using his home’s internet.
He just sent me this, and now he’s ready to #degoogle 🤣🤣🤣
He says there were hundreds in less than 5 minutes.
That shows they’re doing a connectivity check to see if they’re online (which they aren’t)… And grabbed Android TV channels.
Connectivity checks in particular are absolutely standard practice. Even many routers do them
I’m not convinced this is a good reason for dumping google
At this point, for me, any reason to dump Google is a good reason.
