   For me it was realizing Android (4.2.2) would call Google and upload anytime I entered a contact.

   Even after I disabled sync, and a bunch of services. Turns out the only way was to remove Google Services Framework.

   Never looked back.

     #AskFedi if you don't use Google stock android and don't have Google installed on your phone what made you make the change?

     For me this AI and having such deep level access to your phone is what did it for me I can see it like malware and doing things the end user didn't want or intend for it to execute.
