There is a big difference between posting in public non confidential stuff and an app tracking all your clicks and likes and device contacts and telemetry
I am in the process of moving out some contacts from Google Contacts, specifically those that I do not have a Gmail address. It's a way for me to give these people a tiny bit more privacy, as I'm doing a cleanup of my contact list. My concern is that Google will still keep their data even after I delete it from my end. Is it so?...

I had a security download (but not yet installed) ready yesterday. Logged off without installing. Turned on my device today and couldnt log in. Checked my pwd 3 times before seeing "authentication service not working " iirc.
After reboot it installed and logging in worked.
Is this related or not and is it expected? Not being able to log in without a mandatory patch first so to say?
