I use to own a google-free Fairphone, and used non-google servers for that.
Nokia, e.g., also build a massive database.
However, the google-free world was a bit of a hassle. I’m currently opting in full scale - got myself a Pixel 2. And while I’m still very much harrumph about the data collection myself, I have to admit that the results of Google sucking up every bit of user info and crunchy bit is pretty amazing.
I’m in am truly faustian situation. And I personally would love to get access to Google’s data (i.e., your data) and see what I could do with it.
