Comment

This report may be precisely a feature request or a suggestion.

Currently, when I select "Extreme" under "Tracking protection", the "Hide your User-Agent" option is enabled. The result is this;

(AdGuard disabled) Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 10; K) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/128.0.0.0 Mobile Safari/537.36

(AdGuard enabled) Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 10) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/128.0.0.0 Mobile Safari/537.36

This should not be done. Google Chrome has reduced the UA and the string that used to show Device Model has been replaced by a "K" for all devices. Therefore, the "K" is a string that does not need to be removed to protect privacy (it would look bad if it were removed). https://www.chromium.org/updates/ua-reduction/
