    They stated this, which you conveniently ignored to build your straw man:

    Later we found out that this request originates from microG, an open source re-implementation of Google’s proprietary core libraries and applications.

    And the hardware still communicated with a Qualcomm server, without using Google Services.

    This is a known issue and has been documented elsewhere. It still occurs under Lineage without Google Services.

      I’m not conveniently ignoring anything - I read the article. For them to find this out “later” would require that they didn’t understand what the fuck they were doing from the beginning.
