Yes but we do what we can.
demand compensation we should be paid for it
Same, I wish there was a better options. I'm on android right now but when it comes time to upgrade I always try to choose the lesser evil and it's hard.
If you want privacy the only real option is to buy a Android phone with unlocked boitloader and use something like /e/OS or LineageOS, that will break a few apps but most of them work fine with MicroG.
Said Android phone would still use the towers and cellular carriers love selling customer data, because what're you gonna do? Switch to another carrier that happens to also use their exact same towers?
Those can't collect much beside my location tho and they aren't allowed to here unless the cops tell them to, not perfect but a LOT better!
To buy an android phone that is supported by one of those projects. My galaxy s20 isn't and I'm not willing to loose Android auto and the ability to use my cameras.
