In the past, I’ve heard about how Google can keep records of all your Google phone’s past locations and text messages.
What about RCS messages which supposedly are encrypted from Android to Android? I know that it’s possible that they secretly keep a log behind the scenes, but as far as the regular consumer knows is there any record being kept with regard to the contents of these RCS messages?

Meanwhile I applied for reimbursement on my failing Pixel 6a battery and Google keep asking for proof that I own this phone. They won’t even allow it on RCS. The trust issue goes both ways.
I do find it suspicious that governments are targeting Signal’s E2E encryption but not RCS, FB Messenger or WhatsApp. It’s clear which ones are compromised.
FB messenger and WhatsApp use the same encryption on the message content. The difference is metadata. FB and WhatsApp keep all metadata of who users contact and when.
