@Pantherina :)) and I also shut down my google account completely. Together with this, replacing all google apps with more reputable alternatives. Let's hope that a good alternative for GPlay Store is not far away.

This will require all the stupid providers to acually care. And I dont see that yet. But yes, annoy your train companies, banks and more!

I think the earlier recommendation of just using the web browser, preferably a Free Software privacy focused one like the Tor Browser, is a better solution anyway.

?? So you download apps through Tor, using an account linked to your mail and phone number. And you have no update notes
