      In this case, it might not be effected. But in general I wouldn't consider it "De-Googled" unless it didn't have any Google services on it.

        You can disable it, it's just a bit more difficult: https://android.stackexchange.com/a/219376 https://android.stackexchange.com/a/219376 (use the builtin package manager pm over ADB debug permissions, pm uninstall --user 0 package)

  Would this have happened on normal Google phones but without a Google account set up on it and with play services disabled? If Google were able to I stall this without user interaction then android phones are compromised bemy default!
