You can still verify the install even if it went through the play store no? Or are apps on the playstore not signed by the developer?
You’re still putting a measure of trust into Google with that, rather than just trusting F-Droid.
You’re still putting complete trust into Google by using any android that isn’t thoroughly de-googled, built from scratch, and installed on a jailbroken phone. They’re integrated on the OS level they can do whatever they want.
Lol I do run Android without Google Play Services.
