Other Google is spying our app?

[incendio]

Hi guys,

No doubt that Google is spying all Android app via Play Store.
But it seem, Play Store is not the only tool they used.

Recently, I uploaded my app to virustotal.com to let them scan my app for viruses.
I found that a few of my app has a network traffic to these address 142.250.188.196:443 (UDP).

The app that has traffic to Google server use these library/jar

• com.google.android.gmslay-services-vision
• GoogleCharts

Don't know, what kind of data they collected.

They may not be "collecting" data per-se, but any of these services will probably invoke a connection to google's servers:

1. Google Play Services
2. Firebase
3. Google ads
4. Location
5. In-App Billing

*If you have firebase diagnostics, then that would definitely cause connections to google the moment the the app starts because it's logging execution flow within your app for diagnostic reasons.

My app don't have any of those services.

I don't know about the library or jar, probably it use play service.
