@privacy How to be private with google services and noroot.

I can't disable google play services for a lot of reasons (school apps, UPI, etc). I have three main google apps enabled. Gservices, gmail+meet, gpay. I have replaced as much apps as possible. Any guide for being private for me?

You might be able to get a large part of google functionality with a degoogled device running microG or something similar.
