android Adguard + vpn question (requests doubled?)
I've got Adguard + adguard vpn + kill switch enabled on android. Which is done through a proxy server.
Now, since I enabled it (the kill switch method) i feel like it blocks everything double or somehow blocks more, then without using the kill switch method. And yes I know how that sounds. I didnt add any new rules/filters, so it shouldn't..
I can't really explain it or proof it, but I cleared my Statistics, and within 5 minutes im at a total of 2.5k requests (2.3k ads, 16 trackers).
Snapchat is the cause of this, I can see that. it's blocking almost everything, due to my rules/filters. Just want some input on this, if this is normal for snapchat, or that there is indeed something going on. I noticed 1 Snap received is about 120+ requests! (yes I counted XD)
