What type of Services? And do Signal use our contacts or something private like that for third-parties?
Thanks for reply! I have a Samsung phone that De-Googled %100~ (exclude some important Android depencies based on Google). I restored GMS for auth in Signal. After the auth, I uninstalled it back. There is no Youtube, no Google - Chrome, no Spotify etc. Just FOSSed and de-Googled phone. Do I still using Google Services indirect ways because of Signal? Is it possible to be another third-party sharing except phone verification?
No. Signal doesn’t have Google service dependencies. Although, you have other problem here that you probably heard before, using a Samsung phone “de-Googled” won’t make you free from Google. You should check if possible to get an Pixel with GrapheneOS.
