How? What does "system level" mean? Sounds like it must be not only system level but manipulating programs?
/edit: Product page and FAQ are non-telling. Finally found the knowledge base which is not linked in the main nav.
They man-in-the-middle HTTPS for example. So yeah, more intrusive than what I would understand as "system level" behavior.
Uhm, yeah.
doesn't it just work on the DNS level? I've also seen apps creating a local vpn to manage traffic
They host a public DNS you can use.
They also offer DNS with more configuration. And then they also offer this app, which does more.
