I'm aware of that, but it's like a band-aid; Without an application firewall you can't prevent apps from uploading their tracking data. Apps change at a rapid pace, and so do many tracker domains/public ips. By the time the user noticed the changes it's already too late and all the collected data has been uploaded. It's just impossible to maintain a 100% block to prevent your private data being uploaded, without an application firewall.

Without controlling the OS nor the applications, it's a tough task, most things are a band-aid. The possibility of an application firewall evokes me mixed feelings: it'd be great, but I'd have to set what's allowed per app, per phone. Even at that point I doubt it's possible to assure a 100% rate.
