browser based applications can still gain access to this data, using very similar workflows. E.g. a weather app rendered on a browser is still going to request your location, and can fingerprint that browser to build a user profile. I'm not sure your solution is a solution at all.

I have tried for years but it just doesn't make a difference if enough people in the world don't care loudly enough.

Banks are relying on Play Integrity protection as well as SMS-based 2FA, neither of which are both safe and private.

Unless you have friends, of course, and want to keep in touch. (Not a problem for me).
