🏴 #Transport for Wales has introduced its first three new Class 197e trains on the Cambrian Coast Line, replacing trains that have served the route for more than 30 years.
Built in #Wales, the new trains offer improved comfort and accessibility, with faster Wi-Fi, power sockets, bilingual digital screens, air conditioning and accessible toilets. The launch is part of the #Welsh Government’s £800 million investment in new trains across Wales and the borders.
Platforms at six stations have also been raised to make boarding easier for passengers with reduced mobility. More trains are expected to join the route over the coming months.
Until late 2026, passengers travelling between the Cambrian Coast and Shrewsbury or Birmingham must change trains at Machynlleth. Services between Aberystwyth and #Birmingham remain unaffected. Passengers are advised to check timetables before travelling.

Warsztaty o Reticulum - zdecentralizowanej, wolnej sieci.
Kooperatywa Spacja / Kołorking Muzyczny + Dom Słuchowisk, Saturday, November 7 at 05:00 PM GMT+1
Forma: dwie części: teoretyczna i warsztaty praktyczne
Czas trwania: 2–3 godziny
Poziom: podstawowy
Czy komunikacja cyfrowa musi zależeć od infrastruktury operatorów telekomunikacyjnych? Podczas warsztatów opowiem o Reticulum Network Stack — otwartym ekosystemie sieciowym, zaprojektowanym z myślą o budowaniu zdecentralizowanych sieci komunikacyjnych, które mogą działać niezależnie od tradycyjnego dostępu do Internetu.
W części teoretycznej przyjrzymy się temu, jak działa Reticulum, jakie możliwości oferuje i dlaczego warto zainteresować się technologiami pozwalającymi budować własną infrastrukturę komunikacyjną. W części praktycznej uczestnicy samodzielnie(z opcjonalną pomocą organizatora) zainstalują na swoich urządzeniach oprogramowanie pozwalające na łączność w ekosystemie Reticulum i przeprowadzimy między sobą pierwszą wymianę wiadomości.
Porozmawiamy również o tym, jak otwarte technologie komunikacyjne mogą wspierać cyfrową niezależność, odporność na awarie infrastruktury oraz budowanie sieci pozostających pod kontrolą ich użytkowników.
Czego się nauczysz?
- Czym jest Reticulum Network Stack i jak działa zdecentralizowana komunikacja.
- Dlaczego warto budować sieci niezależne od tradycyjnych operatorów telekomunikacyjnych.
- Jak skonfigurować interfejsy LAN/Wi-Fi i połączyć węzły Reticulum w sieci lokalnej.
- Jak wykorzystać tani moduł radiowy LoRa jako dodatkowy interfejs komunikacyjny oraz jakie ma możliwości i ograniczenia.
Wymagania: ciekawość i gotowość do poznania nowej technologii. Przydatny będzie laptop z systemem Windows lub Linux i/lub telefon z Androidem lub iOS. Nie jest wymagane wcześniejsze doświadczenie z radiokomunikacją, ani zaawansowane umiejętności w obszarze IT.

We've all been there: you browse for a new gadget, and suddenly, every app on your Android phone is showing you ads for that exact item. It's not magic; it's app tracking, and it's pervasive. While convenient for some, for many of us, it feels like a constant invasion of privacy. Reining it in isn't just about avoiding targeted ads; it's about securing your personal data from unknown third parties.
This isn't an abstract threat. Your location, app usage patterns, browsing history, and even contact lists can be collected and sold. For a long time, the only real solution was to root your phone or dive into complex network configurations. Thankfully, the landscape has improved, and there are now accessible, effective ways to implement robust app tracking protection on Android.
What is App Tracking Protection on Android?
App tracking protection on Android refers to the methods and tools used to prevent applications from collecting, sharing, or using your personal data without your explicit consent. This includes blocking ad trackers, preventing data brokers from profiling your activities, and limiting the permissions apps have to access sensitive information like location, microphone, or contacts. Effective protection helps you regain control over your digital footprint on your Android device.Why You Need to Care About App Tracking
Beyond the 'creepy' factor of personalized ads, there are tangible risks associated with unchecked app tracking:- Data Breaches: The more entities holding your data, the higher the risk of a breach exposing your personal information.
- Profiling & Discrimination: Your data can be used to build detailed profiles that might influence everything from loan applications to insurance rates.
- Battery Drain & Performance: Constant background tracking can consume significant battery life and system resources.
- Security Vulnerabilities: Apps with excessive permissions can sometimes be exploited by malicious actors.
Android's Built-in Privacy Controls: A Starting Point
Google has made strides in recent Android versions to give users more control. These aren't perfect, but they're essential foundational steps.1. Permission Manager
This is your first line of defense. Regularly review which apps have access to sensitive permissions.- Go to
Settings > Privacy > Permission manager. - Tap on categories like
Location,Microphone,Camera,Contacts,Files and media. - Review each app. If an app doesn't need a permission to function (e.g., a calculator app asking for location), revoke it. For location, choose
Ask every timeorAllow only while using the appinstead ofAlways allow.
2. Private DNS
Private DNS encrypts your DNS queries, making it harder for your ISP or other entities to see which websites and services you're connecting to. Some private DNS providers also block known ad and tracking domains.- Go to
Settings > Network & internet > Private DNS. - Select
Private DNS provider hostname. - Enter a provider like
dns.adguard.com(blocks ads/trackers) ordns.cloudflare-dns.com(focuses on privacy/speed).
3. Google Ad ID Reset & Deletion
Your Android device has a unique advertising ID. Advertisers use this to track your activity across apps. Resetting it essentially gives you a new identity, breaking the link to your past data. Deleting it is even better.- Go to
Settings > Google > Ads. - Tap
Reset advertising IDorDelete advertising ID. - Also, enable
Opt out of Ads Personalization.
Advanced App Tracking Protection Tools
While Android's built-in features are good, dedicated privacy tools offer a far more comprehensive shield. These often work by creating a local VPN on your device, filtering traffic before it leaves your phone, or by acting as a powerful firewall.1. AdGuard for Android (Recommended)
AdGuard isn't just an ad blocker; it's a full-fledged network filter that provides robust app tracking protection. It creates a local VPN (without routing your traffic through external servers, keeping your data local) to filter DNS requests and block connections to known tracking domains across all apps and browsers.Key Features:
- System-wide Ad & Tracker Blocking: Blocks ads and trackers in apps, browsers, and even games.
- DNS Filtering: Allows you to use custom DNS servers that block malicious domains and trackers.
- Firewall: Control internet access for individual apps, even blocking background data.
- Stealth Mode: Protects against various tracking methods like cookie injection, hidden referers, and more.
How to Set Up AdGuard (Android):
- Download AdGuard for Android from their official website (it's not on the Play Store due to Google's restrictions on system-wide ad blockers).
- Install the APK and grant necessary permissions.
- Open the app, enable
Protection. - Navigate to
Settings > DNS filteringand choose a suitable DNS server (e.g., AdGuard DNS, Cloudflare DNS). - Explore
App Managementto fine-tune network access for specific apps.
# Example of AdGuard's DNS filtering in action (conceptual)
# AdGuard intercepts DNS requests like this:# App requests: track.someadnetwork.com
# AdGuard checks its filter lists...
# ...and blocks the connection, preventing data transmission.2. Blokada (Open Source Alternative)
Blokada is another excellent, open-source option that operates similarly to AdGuard by creating a local VPN to filter traffic. It's free and highly configurable.Key Features:
- System-wide Blocking: Blocks ads, trackers, malware domains.
- Customizable Blocklists: Add or remove specific lists to tailor your protection.
- DNS over HTTPS/TLS: Supports encrypted DNS for enhanced privacy.
How to Set Up Blokada (Android):
- Download Blokada from their official website or F-Droid.
- Install the APK and grant permissions.
- Toggle the main switch to
On. - Go to
Ad blockingto select your preferred blocklists.
3. NetGuard (Firewall Focus)
If your primary concern is controlling which apps can access the internet at all, NetGuard is a powerful, open-source firewall. It doesn't block trackers specifically but lets you deny internet access to any app, preventing it from sending data out.Key Features:
- Per-App Firewall: Block Wi-Fi and/or mobile data for any app.
- Background Data Blocking: Prevent apps from using data when not in active use.
- Open Source: Transparent and community-audited.
Architectural Overview: How These Tools Work
Most advanced app tracking protection tools on Android operate by leveraging the VPN API. Here's a simplified diagram:graph TD
A[Your Android App] --> B(Local VPN Service);
B --> C{Filter Rules / Blocklists?};
C -- Yes, Block! --> D[Tracking Server (Blocked)];
C -- No, Allow --> E[Legitimate Server];
E --> B;
B --> A;
In this model, the local VPN service acts as a gatekeeper. All network traffic from your apps first passes through this service. It then checks against its internal blocklists (which contain thousands of known ad and tracker domains). If a destination matches a blocked entry, the connection is dropped, and the tracking attempt is foiled. If it's a legitimate connection, it's allowed to proceed.Crucially, because it's a local VPN, your data never leaves your device and isn't routed through a third-party server, preserving your privacy while blocking trackers.
Best Practices for Ongoing Android Privacy
Implementing tools is a great start, but maintaining privacy is an ongoing effort:- Regular Permission Audits: Revisit
Permission managerevery few months. Apps update and sometimes request new permissions. - App Review: Before installing, check app permissions on the Play Store. Read recent reviews for privacy concerns.
- Limit App Installs: The fewer apps you have, the less surface area for tracking.
- Use Privacy-Focused Browsers: Browsers like Brave or Firefox Focus have built-in ad and tracker blocking.
- Keep Software Updated: OS and app updates often include security patches that close privacy loopholes.
- Be Skeptical of 'Free' Apps: If you're not paying for a product, you are often the product (your data).
Wrapping Up: Take Back Your Data
App tracking on Android is a significant privacy concern, but it's not an insurmountable one. By combining Android's built-in privacy controls with powerful third-party tools like AdGuard or Blokada, you can dramatically reduce your digital footprint and protect your personal data. It takes a little effort, but the peace of mind knowing you're not constantly being watched is well worth it.Start with the basics, then layer on a dedicated solution. Your data is yours; it's time to treat it that way.#android #privacy #security #tracking #software #coding #development #engineering #inclusive #community
