Cell Phone Tracking & PiHole

Many people underestimate how much data their phones upload. I use PiHole as a DNS filter and cache so I can track outbound requests. I noticed that during the same time of day a significant portion of my blocked requests disappeared. Turns out this is exactly when I leave and come back from work. The culprit was my cell phone trying to send usage data that pihole was blocking successfully. I will post the blocked queries later.
