tl;dr I don't want google to spy on my phone, wat do? Can I purge the botnet from android? Do I have to install a different OS?
Too long; did read: So my mom just bough a new smartphone but it hasn't arrived and she plans to give her old smartphone to my sister, my sister will have to choose beatween keeping her current phone and giving mom's phone to me or keeping mom's phone and give me her phone to me.
This'll be mys first smartphone and I'm a tinfoil hat paranoid who dislikes google products, naturally my frst tought is what to do against the google botnet.
Is there a way to block or remove the telemetry from android?
Should I install a mobile linux distro?
cyanogenmod
no gapps if you don't care about apps
otherwise limit it with the built in privacy guard
It probably won't work perfectly tho

cyanogenmod sounds nice but I have my doubts
I do care about apps unless other OSs offer better alterntives.

My mom has a motorola moto e and my sister has a unknown model huawei if that helps

My sister decided to give me the moto e and it is compatible with cyanogenmod, I still want to hear if there are any alternatives.
