So use Fcitx 5 Android instead. It's a open source IME application without requesting any permission except Notification, especially without network permission.

Can you point to where it says that in the report? It actually says:

an IME will commonly reach out over the network to a cloud-based service for suggestions if suitable suggestions are not available in the input method’s local database.

So it doesn't send "every key typed".
