Not sure if it counts but chatbot support in the sidebar has existed for quite some time now.

I mean it’s technically possible. But don’t really believe that to be the case. Either why, in my opinion we one shouldn’t spread information or theories without any concrete evidence at all. It’s not like I feel sorry for Google or whatever I’m just tired of the constant misinformation and conspiracy theories.

The Pixel might be subsidized to get Android some more market share from Apple, or earn more money Google Play Store sales or whatever. Subsidizing your phone business just to collect more data might make some sense unless you are Google which already knows everything about everyone.

For the ISP sure, but for Google? I don’t really think they would care all that much.

Sure but if Google wanted to push the devices onto people because of tracking purposes wouldn’t they also make them cheaper to buy outright?

Come on now, it’s actually 0,333… in 8,333…

Pixels cost around the same as any other phone from Samsung, Oneplus, or whatever.

You might be thinking of brickit. I have never used it myself (i have downloaded it though) so I have no idea if it works.
