To be honest I don't understand how this works e.g. even with LineageOS' PrivacyGuard I still see some background processes in cache that had no permission to run on boot.

But it's absolutely necessary. I can't upgrade until I have that. I want full control of what runs on startup and what should be allowed to keep running on background (manually closed by me, I'm not asking for a skynet AI to guess).

Another one is blocking internet access but that will never happen because of their business model and ads. I guess I'll have to risk my personal data by using an open source firewall (not like I'm not going to review all the code) and unlocking bootloader/root.

Android is a disgrace because of these "small" things that they refuse to fix. But I'm glad it's slowly getting better.

I hope it included the people responsible for sending me the most abusive SPAM campaigns I have had in years.

1) I never subscribed to these e-mails

2) The e-mails contain a link to unsubscribe in this format: click.uber.com/f/a/<strings>

3) You get redirected to uber.com/unsubscribe

4) They make you manually fill your e-mail

5) When you press unsubscribe:

- It makes a request to uber.com/api/unsubscribe?email=<email-address>&et_job_id=&et_list_id=&et_batch_id=&message_uuid=&content_identifier=

- Response is always 404 Not Found (Tested on Firefox, Chrome, IE, Edge)
