More than 7 years ago, I started the #FreeYourAndroid campaign for : FreeYourAndroid.org
Today, it is easier than ever to run a system with only free (libre) apps...

Users will have substantially better privacy and security on an Android Open Source Project based OS than what you're proposing. The FOSS mobile app ecosystem is also far superior. You really have it backwards and you're just pushing dishonest FUD which is incredibly predictable.

I'm not. And you clearly don't know Ubuntu Touch, and the community. The OS is Free Software, the app ecosystem on Ubuntu Touch is almost entirely Free Software, and the OS doesn't call home.
I'm not pushing FUD, Android is not a great platform for privacy.

AOSP is Free Software and unlike Ubuntu, it doesn't have telemetry / analytics. It also has drastically superior privacy / security instead of being complete junk with a barely existent security model and mitigations. You're making completely dishonest and clearly bogus claims.
AOSP has a better mobile app ecosystem than what you're proposing along with a far superior app sandbox and permission model actually providing meaningful privacy and security. It has dramatically superior hardening of the OS. You're proposing going backwards a decade. No thanks.

AOSP is not what most people get on their devices they get something else based on that with modifications and tons of proprietary software and services calling home.
Ubuntu and Ubuntu Touch are Free Software licensed under GPL. You're the one making bogus claims.

AOSP is Free Software too. The thread is about AOSP-based open source operating systems, so I don't know why you're pretending the discussion is about something else. You came here on the attack, spreading misinformation/spin to promote something else. It's not welcome at all.
