I don't want Spark always on 24/7 even when my phone is locked. I don't want Google's AI reading my emails, or my calendar events. I don't need a more intelligent search box, I don't want a Gemini-powered universal shopping cart, I don't want to conversationally search, or get interactive follow-ups from YouTube.

I want my phone to be very good at being a phone, and part of that means no spyware from Google or anyone else. I don't care how Google spins or frames it. They've made it crystal clear that consent is opt-in by default, and "no" means "maybe later."

Anyone else?
