Google’s new Chat service shows contempt for Android users’ privacy
People using Android should live with the notion that Google siphons absolutely everything from their devices. One way is to block any application is not needed to "speak to google" (or Facebook, or any advertisers).<p>I always use and suggest to other Android users the NoRoot Firewall [1], and then disable/uninstall everything not needed. Of course that applied to IT pros, as tweaking things without the appropriate knowledge may/will result to a phone bricking/reset.<p>[1]: <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.greyshirts.firewall" rel="nofollow">https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.greyshirts...</a>
