"Smart anti tracking" seemingly missing

[arianwen27]

Hey, I was just going through some settings and noticed "Smart anti-tracking" in Samsung Internet seems to have disappeared. My S25U doesn't have it, and my A14 doesn't have it. Can someone check to see if they have it?

Samsung Internet, lower right, privacy; it should be there. When Samsung Internet first loads, it even mentions it, then it's seemingly nonexistent. 

A friend with an a52 has it show up

How odd, but glad you find how to get it back!

My home network has ad and tracker blocking. It seems smart anti tracking is downloaded sorta separate from samsung internet, and however it does that is being blocked and classified as a tracker causing it to fail to appear

That makes a lot of sense. It helps a lot when you understand technology on both sides to enable you to find the route cause and fix the issue. Well done for finding that.

As you add things like ad blocker and extra security options, the bar increases as an indicator of your overall level.

I have adblocker for samsung running, and have also set now an option to block pop ups. My security status has improved... by blocking pop-ups

Makes a lot of sense now. Thank you for the explanation mate.

You surfing dodgy site mate, my stats are low, but been using my laptop.

I just checked and Google.com and Google.co.uk seem both contribute thousands of blocks to this count. Strange 🤞

I guess at least they are being blocked... that is the main thing.
