Every time I switch to a new phone, laptop, smart TV, or basically any smart device, I\u2019d need to spend time specifically turning off diagnostics, rejecting personalized recommendations, and stopping various forms of background data collection.<\/p>\n<p>I mostly stopped worrying about that after switching to NextDNS. It has a Native Tracking Protection feature that blocks trackers working at the operating system level with DNS filtering.<\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\">Related<\/span><\/p>\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \">\n<p>\t\t\tYour VPN might be leaking your entire browsing history right now<\/p>\n<\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">VPN privacy isn\u2019t as automatic as most apps make it seem.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"managing-privacy-settings-on-every-device-i-use-takes-too-much-effort\">\n                        Managing privacy settings on every device I use takes too much effort<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<h3 id=\"privacy-shouldn-rsquo-t-require-this-much-work\">\n            Privacy shouldn\u2019t require this much work<br \/>\n    <\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s no secret that almost every device we use tracks us in one way or another&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.makeuseof.com\/protect-privacy-with-nextdns-tracking-protection\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How NextDNS makes every device on your network more private \u2014 and how to set&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":256916,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/static0.makeuseofimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/wm\/2026\/05\/nextdns-native-protection-mode.jpg?w=1600&h=900&fit=crop","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[84],"class_list":["post-256915","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-privacy","tag-tracking"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256915"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=256915"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256915\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":256917,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256915\/revisions\/256917"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/256916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=256915"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=256915"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=256915"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
