Just curious why is this entire thing even in the Android community? This is a privacy topic or a YouTube topic etc. There's nothing about it that ties it to Android. Can we keep stuff like this out? It's just one more topic that devolves into politics, scare speculation etc. Just read the comment threads if you need to see.

    Exactly. People needs to know Android is not Google

    when over half of the bug fixes and security patches come from Google, it's a Google product.

    and I'm saying that as an android user from /e/OS

    Should be but at this point basically aren't.

    You can't run AOSP on most phones and if you could you wouldn't get the user experience most people expect from a phone.

    I myself have degoogled android device without bootloader locked. I have multiple devices with stock and custom ROM. With adb or other GUI tools you can go 95% degoogled without causing any breakage
