The software engineer: "I just looked away from the screen a few seconds to talk with a collegua, and suddenly my fingers just typed something like 'socket open <chinese.ip>', 'send some shit', 'close soocket'. I couldn't help it, I did not notice it at all!"

A mistake, or, as they say it nowadays, a glitch.

Like the 50.000 thousand reviews deleted from rottentomatoes, due to a... glitch.

If the data wasn't supposed to go to China, where was it supposed to go, Nokia?

They’ll issue a fake security patch to reassure their users but make no mistake their $200 phones have negative margin and they make their money entirely by selling data to China.

Here's how to stop allowing satan into your device.

Exit all of your apps and reboot the phone. Once the phone is to the home screen:

Go to google.app's info page.

Stop the google.app process.

Clear app cache

Clear app data

Go to app permissions.

Turn off all permissions listed in the google.app permissions section.

Disable Google.app.

Reboot the phone.

Enjoy not being monitored by Google

Note: haven't tried this yet so I can't guarantee it works.
