I might have misunderstood this but is Android really trying to push this as tracking as a privacy upgrade, simply because it let’s us choose which of our interests we want advertisers to have access to?

Its funny that I was forced to buy a google pixel just to avoid google. Wish more companies here allow people to unlock bootloader on the mobile they own.

Oh I am aware but I was replying to him asking other alternatives to google android, not op. I wanted any mobile that let’s me degoogle it on day 1 without voiding warranty and it ended up being a google mobile.

Yup Google is a very strange Company. Chromebooks are sometimes the easiest Coreboot Linux Laptops to buy.
