Client side solutions can do even more tracking because there is no browser sandbox. And for example the µTorrent client has ads in it which are probably tracked.

Yes, I suggest using open-source clients that don't include ads (such as RetroShare). µTorrent is not open-source, btw.

So if the issue is tracking regardless, why not use a non-tracking web app?
