   There are only 3 known Google apps which infest Android with a login.   
   And each of those 3 Google apps has a privacy-aware replacement.   
      
   Bear in mind that *plenty* of Google apps have a login that does *not*   
   infest the Android device with an integral account, VanguardLH.   
      
   I realize your IQ is so low you can't comprehend that basic fact.   
   But Theo understood.   
      
   Nobody else understood.   
   Just Theo.   
      
   And, rest assured, for those 3 apps which do infect Android with a   
   system-wide Google Account, there are free privacy-aware equivalents.   
      
   That's what we've learned this week.   
   Not you. You can't learn anything.   
      
   But we learned that.   
      
   There is no Google functionality on Android that you can't get without a   
   Google Account integrally set up inside the Android operating system.   
      
   If there were, someone would have mentioned it by now.
