We've [earned from experience that suggestions we make for reverse proxy naming will eventually be spotted and blocked by adblockers. /ingest was a suggestion that used to be in our docs and was later removed from our docs after we spotted it in adblocking/anti-tracking lists.

Changes

So, changing this:
"Use something neutral like et, or ingest instead."

to this:
"Use something unrelated to tracking or analytics instead."

Clarify subdomain naming guidance to avoid terms related to tracking or analytics.
