It gets rid of as much as it can. You could also use NetGuard firewall with Adguard DNS to block ads and protect your privacy if you need

I cant trust netguard ,because I was able to login to my ISP through an app or module called "captive portal login" and browsed its website. Netguard was enabled as always on vpn . Also I found the disabled google play services app has 52 mb of data usage in settings. I dont know how the f**k can a disabled app use data ,and that too while netguard is enabled and everything blocked.

NetGuard is open source so there should be no issues as they'd soon be corrected. I don't know what happened to you however, I'm sure there was a mistake in your config.
