Re: What can't you do on Android WITHOUT a Google Account set up in the OS?

Of course, Andrew isn't going to believe anything regarding privacy when
Google is involved.

Hi VanguardLH,
You're wrong. Again.
Rest assured I've read everything you've posted to this newsgroup for years, where I'm well aware your IQ is below normal, so be aware please that you can't possibly comprehend *any* approach to privacy on Android.
Most people are too stupid to understand the implications of privacy.
That's why people like Rudy & Chris & Carlos simply give up on privacy.
It's too complicated for them.
And for you.
All of you hate that you're stupid; so you blame me for your ignorance.
So be it.
Suffice to say you always guess - and you always guess wrong, VanguardLH.
I've told you that before - but your mind can't handle basic facts.
Rest assured I have *plenty* of Google Accounts, VanguardLH. Tons of them.
So you *can* have privacy even when a Google Account is involved.
I realize your IQ is so low you can't comprehend that statement.
But it's true.
The *biggest* step toward privacy when Google is involved is to never use the three Google apps which automatically infest Android with an account.
Again, I realize that simple statement, obvious as it is, is still too advanced for your low-IQ brain to fathom - but rest assured, it's true.
As long as you avoid those (easily avoided) 3 Google apps, you're off to a good start on obtaining privacy on Android without Google tracking you.
To the original topic, which takes at least an average IQ to comprehend, so far nobody yet has found even a single Google app that can't be replaced by a privacy-aware app - and which doesn't infest Android with an account.
Can you?
