I hate to shill for Google, but the the pixel phone has call screening, and I rarely get spam to surface. It is one of the few actually great things that Google does.

Too bad it comes at the expense of Google knowing everything you talk about, and to whom.

  That’s true, but I think that’s true, even if not publicly known, about every smart phone.

    When I got my new Pixel a month+ ago, I kept my old one to test 3rd party OS’s on my not daily driver. I haven’t yet tried, but I do have plans to try and switch, it just has to be able to do all of my things.
