Use your wallet. Don't buy products like that.
Which products don't have that? I'm seriously asking, I would buy those.
Fairphone?
Maybe? It seems like from their site that they're more interested in saving the planet but it is bare bones. It doesn't really make any declarations on that front.
It doesn't come with preloaded shit though, so in that sense it's a good option.
I didn't see that on their site, that's good to know.
Search ADB OTG pm uninstall -k --user 0 [PACKAGE NAME]
Thank me later
It comes with stock Android, no additional bloatware. There are various tutorials to install other OSes.
Pixel devices, devices with custom roms, and devices that you used ADB bridge to disable or uninstall "system" apps.
Pixel phones are not saints either. They keep pushing google products/servicea down your throat.
Not if you install GrapheneOS

Disconnect the tv from the internet. Use an AppleTV or Nvidea Shield.
Some of them will auto connect to open WiFi signals without advising you just to dial home.
The only open signal in my area is actually a paywalled network that uses a portal to make you pay
The Motorola phones I've been buying for ages are usually real light on bloat. Worst I had was having to remove Facebook from my phone using CLI commands (I think with adb?)
Pixels...
