Will Google Play Services compromise my privacy on GrapheneOS? - eviltoast

Hello everyone. I have a separate profile for my proprietary apps on GOS, yet some of these apps don’t work, so I’m thinking I need to enable Google Play Services.

Was wondering if this could hugely compromise my privacy, and if I could uninstall GPS later on. Thank you!

    Yes, but if you’re not Edward Snowden then you will be fine. You can uninstall/disable it at any time.

        because next to nobody has such a high threat model that requires complete anonymity

        it’s very different from being anti-corporate and trying to get yourself off of centralized services
