          Graphene etc. are just based on Android, technically they are custom builds with some stuff removed and other added. I wouldn’t call them Android, just as Miui etc. aren’t really Android.

          Graphene etc. are the only mobile OSes (based on Android) not spying.

          Android is spying on you, custom, open source ROMs are not.

            Ok I see your point. Personally I’d still call all third party ROMs “Android”, but it doesn’t really matter, it’s just like the never ending “is Android Linux?” debate
