Does Google not currently have an anti trust lawsuit going on? Fine addition of them abusing their quasi monopoly position. But maybe they want to use this as argument "look people could just get it from fdroid" or something like that. IANAL

BTW does removal mean phones with enabled google protect will ask users to uninstall the app? I have this "feature" disabled.

play protect sucks, ye. I think I might just go for f-droid only for my next phone.

I'll lose tiktok, but whatever

There's the Aurora Store on F-Droid that lets you install apps from Google's store without giving any data/account info to Google. Works pretty well!
