Firefox Focus is meant to be one of the more privacy friendly browsers on Android, yet after install it has Google set as the default web browser and it collects telemetry. So you still need to hunt through the settlings to find and turn off these things if they concern you (which they should imo)

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci even if you disable these settings, you’re on an android phone. google never leaves and consistently sends datapoints and telemetry forever. do you think disabling the browser settings does much in this case?

either way have you taken a look at other aosp builds that are de-googled?
