Original Title: After Zuckerberg’s email, the Onavo team took on the project and a month later proposed a solution: so-called kits that can be installed on iOS and Android that intercept traffic for specific subdomains, “allowing us to read what would otherwise be encrypted traffic so we can measure in-app usage,”

Can anyone explain what kits are in this context? I am very new to cyber and saw this article and was wondering. For iOS I was thinking about the profiles you are able to download but isn’t that something you have manually add?
