@baldur Not surprised that #Adobe is doing that, after my recent experience.

When I enabled the #DuckDuckGo App Tracking Protection module on my #Android phone, I was surprised to see that the worst offender, by a couple of orders of magnitude, was #Acrobat. It made over 7,000 tracking attempts in the few minutes before I uninstalled it.

@david_megginson @baldur app tracking? I only see the browser, is this a separate product?

@davidshq @baldur It's a module that you have to enable in settings. I don't use the browser itself, but I have the module enabled. It works as a pseudo-VPN.
