I wonder if ReVanced can be used to block analytics and data sharing. I wanted to play with patches to understand how they work but never got around to it.

Or use piped, a youtube proxy, and libretube, it's interface for android

I was specifically talking about patching any other app, which ReVanced supports to block ads and add feature, but instead create a patch that blocks tracking.
