This is more reason then ever to flash a generic android image. Google does track your wifi and have amassed a huuuuuge library of SSID name, freq, mac addresses and this is what they use alongside IP geo location for google maps and other services. It's good and also bad. And if you restrict these things, you "look" like a bot so you have increased friction to accessing information! The looking like a bot, makes sense I get that and ddos prevention but it goes in a circle, doesn't it? iPhone is not the answer either, but an iphone w/ no google apps doesn't mean you're free from the ecosystem.
