I literally got a notification that took me to this menu. They aren't trying to hide it

I didn't. I only found out about it through this post.

How our future will look. I know most people will go about they're lives ignorant to this bs but by agreeing to this shit your inadvertently fucking us all. I hope more people look to custom ROMs and disagree to marketing bs and generally living with more awareness of the actions they take and how it'll effect our future
