Description
When launching my app with the SDK installed, my firewall intercepts calls to Realm, Mongo, and Mixpanel URLs. This seems antithetical to the principles that Matrix presents regarding privacy.
I've not dug super deep, but I didn't see any obvious way to disable this. Are there any instructions anywhere to do so?
