Network Content Filter based on packets
Hi, I built a system that can detect and block Short Form Videos like Instagram Reels and Youtube Shorts. It works by connecting the iphone to a VPN and then do statistics on network packets (no decryption). I was wondering the feasibility of porting this to run on device. Functionality wise I would need: packet interception, packet drop, DNS query interception. I saw that Content filter providers could be something to look into, but then I read an article of how you would have to have a managed device which is not ideal for the end user. New to apple development, the lack of snippets and code examples is confusing.
