      In general, they collect anything and everything they can get their hands on. So limiting their access, as much as possible, is the way to go.

      Wireguard could be helpful if you used a SSL terminating proxy in front of it but then you have to know the data format to parse it. So unless you are a researcher it is a long path ahead of you without any OOTB tools to do it for you.
