Advertisers user your mobile ad ID to track you everywhere, often correlating it with non-mobile activity. You need to disable these IDs and I'll tell you how.
Google do Google stuff not because they are evil. They do it because they can , which is true for any company in this system. If another takes the position it will do the same. Also its not like phones are Googles main income source. Buying a pixel and putting GOS on it probably is worse for Googles bottom line , no matter new or used, than using a stock any other Android.
Yeah but you have no control over how other people spend their money. That second hand phone would still be there whether you buy it or not. But if you buy a new one you’re giving google more money.
Ideally there would be no second hand google phones because nobody would buy them new, but that’s not happening

they didn’t mean to buy from a reseller who got it directly from google, but to buy from people who had it and are selling it now.
