    That is almost nothing compared with what Google and Facebook apps send back. And all games and apps. Even your clock app connects to Google. Every flashlight app is just a collector app.

    The user has no way to disable anything. Some apps will be uninstalled but like Facebook it still has 3 more services running, so removing has zero effect.

    You really need to connect the phone to a pc and remove with adb all that crap. And a local vpn app so you can control what connects to the internet or not.
