Can't wait to see it randomly eat a lot of my battery, because the AI package decided to calculate something. Oh and those gigabyte of storage just being hooked by the OS for nothing. Also that constant data fishing for "security" or convince and totally not for surveillance.

People forget that there's still a huge difference if multiple company have different data, without context or data with a whole profile, all at once, all analyzed on the fly and compared to other people. You know why they want that? You can basically predict the future at this point. We don't even need to vote anymore, if they know everything about you. The danger of data emerges by its consolidation. This is very critical to understand.

It doesn't even matter if I personally switch to a degoogled phone, if 99,9999% of the people don't. I might as well not do the effort.
