spying a little?

These connections were made even before I tried to open a site. And telemetry, health report, etc are of course disabled.

Hi, can the program you are using intercept all OUTGOING phone home attempts?
In other words, not (just) incoming, but more importantly, OUTGOING - so that it blocks all outgoing phone home attempts.

If someone is interested in *just* blocking everything trying to send data OUT of your phone, which applications offer a pop-up that in time either allows or permanently blocks these phone home attempts, so that you are in full control of what goes out of your phone?
Open the pod bay doors, Cortana.

Noroot firewall does exactly that - controls outgoing connections established by programs. There are no incoming connections, couldn't be as the phone's address is unknown, changes frequently and it is most probably behind a NAT.

Is that the best one for intercepting app phone home attempts?
Which others did you look at that caught your eye, feature-wise?
