TrackerControl (TC) is an Android app that allows users to track and monitor the widespread, persistent, covert collection of data in mobile apps about user behavior ("tracking"). To detect tracking, TrackerControl combines the capabilities of the Disconnect blocklist used in Firefox and our own blocklist built from analyzing ~2,000,000 apps! In addition, TrackerControl supports custom blocklists and uses ClassyShark3xodus/Exodus Privacy signatures to analyze tracker libraries in application code.
There was created a duplicate of this application in F-droid application (not site, all links from this duplicated application lead to official developer pages on F-droid site also original TC, in the application itself from "TrackerControl" nothing was changed except adding to the main screen a filter of applications working with/without internet, which is mentioned on the screen with the duplicated application.
- Was it worth adding a separate application for the sake of application filter on the main screen and signing it as from "TrackerControl"?
- Can it be considered as something unkind or is it an attempt to update the original application independently?
