Mobile operating systems (Android, IOS) don't give the user enough freedom to understand how the system works, the best you can hope for is an understanding of how to use the technology. Knowing how technology works is very different from knowing how to use technology.

Your other post really makes it sound like you think people use GrapheneOS to hurt Google's business model.

GrapheneOS runs Google play services in a sandbox (rather than as a system level app) and randomizes the advertiser ID, IIRC.

People don't use GrapheneOS to avoid giving Google their money. They do it to protect their privacy.
