Rethink actually seems to block Play Services if you choose to configure Rethink a certain way. It is delightful watching Play Services become more and more desperate. Trying other states, other countries, and even other Google devices on your local network in a desperate attempt to get online and shit telemetry back to Google.
Same can’t be said about iOS. Apple routes their 17.x.x.x network and other traffic outside userspace, immune to even full-tunnel VPN. Android networking isn’t that capable.

I’m starting to explore RethinkDNS. Any tips or directions on the subtleties would be brilliant please
Apps like Android Easter Egg do not need network access. Go from there and hit what needs to be blocked.
That sounds a lot more satisfying than I would have imagined. How do I set it up in that way?
Many apps have no reason to ever have network access. Block away until you start seeing feedback in the app logs.
