Don't worry they won't!

Seems to be innocuous, but there's no harm in removing it. Next update, it'll be returned, so the better solution long-term will be (if you're rooted) is to use an application to freeze it, which effectively disables it and it should survive and update. If you delete the app, a new update will put it back.
I don't see it on the app store to remove anymore
You can't search for it. You have to open a direct link.

did they make it so after people started removing it?
Nah, for system stuff that updates via Google Play, it's always been like that. Like Android System Webview for example, if you search Google Play for it you only see the Beta and Developer versions of it. You need a direct link to see the default one included with modern Android.

Thanks for bringing this up, first I've heard of it. Not present on my GrapheneOS pixel, present on stock.
I suppose I should encourage pixel owners to switch from stock to graphene, I know which decide I rather spend time using. GrapheneOS one of course.
I've got a Pixel 8 Pro and I'm currently using the stock OS. Anything in particular that you miss with Graphene OS?
I switched from a Samsung to a Pixel a couple years ago. I instantly installed GrapheneOS and have loved it ever since. It generally works perfectly normally with the huge background benefit of security and privacy. The only issues I have had is one of my banking apps doesn’t work (but the others work fine) and lack of RCS (but I’m sure it’s coming). In short, highly highly recommend. I will be sticking with GOS for the long term!
I still use a stock pixel for work related and daily usage, but the alternatives I've found between F-Droid and Aurora store I've never felt lacking.
Maybe I'll finish the switch fully in the coming months.
I've looked into it.l briefly. Did you have any issues switching? I'm concerned about how some apps I need would function.

Thank you was able to find and uninstall the app with no issues
Fuck these cunt
I've just given it the boot from my phone.
It doesn't appear to have been doing anything yet, but whatever.
Don't use Google Play. Prefer Obtanium, F-Droid or Aurora Store.
Though just not using it makes no difference. You need to remove Play Store and Play services to orevent them from tracking you and managing your apps.
Tracking maybe, but how is the Play Store managing my apps?
the google play services system can silently install and remove apps from your phone
