I am so terribly frightened by that move I am seriously considering getting rid of Android. Of what I have heard it's going to be backed into the OS and not installed as an app I could de-install / block, right?

What truly open Smart phone OSes are available besides Android and iOS?

None. If you're concerned, do not carry a spy around with you.

I know, it's a scary thought compared to 30 years ago, but it's possible.

Librem is the usual answer, but aren’t there other, existing, baked in parts of Android that compromise your privacy? It won’t change much because of this project.
