I was not raging. Doesn't matter what the reasons are (hard to prove either way), foe the unassuming user there are serious and even fatal implications if removing specific files or clearing history or logs does not have the expected effect. I am aware (I hope everyone else is) that mobile operating systems are magnitudes of order worse. Your list of complaints is whataboutism and is not directly related to OS privacy expectations and reality. Linux is better at this because it gives you more control over what is logged and the code is open source.
