There was a person in all these days that trough some shade on Boost for tracking, but they were referring to the free version, which makes the presence of ads and tracking very clear. In the post somebody recommended the app tracking protection that comes with DuckDuckGos Browser. I downloaded it and to my surprise have had a lot of tracking attempts blocked from Boost, despite me having the payed version.

I thought I'd ask about this here first, because there might be a reasonable explanation for this. From my understanding it was made clear previously, that the payed version of boost doesn't tack data...?

So does it stop showing tracking when you sett your browser to external? Because it doesn't for me.

Also, details are the same for me, just a general guess.
