you know I had thought along these lines but had never really thought in terms of using a data only card. thanks.
Your requirements made me stop and think about it. I'd kinda forgotten that Lineage also starts out with no Google Services - they're not permitted to bundle them (by Google), which works out fine.
They do provide links to different GS packages - the factory stuff from Google, as well as several reduced-form, and some open source packages that provide a GS interface for apps, but uses open-source data sources, such as the NLP (Network Location) that doesn't track you.
