That’s crazy. I don’t doubt it… but all I have to go on is, last year or the year before, my wife’s Galaxy S22 said they were changing the terms of the health app. They were going to market the user data to be sold, and you had to opt in by a certain date. If you did not, they deleted all your past data and froze the app until you agreed, at which point it would start anew. She did not agree, so her health data was wiped and she doesn’t get the health features anymore. Any of them. If she tries to open the app, it offers the choice of agreeing to the terms or exiting the app.

Google just collects your data and sells it regardless, and they do it on phones they don’t sell. The reason they give Apple billions of dollars yearly is so they can do in on iPhones to an extent, too. They can only get so much, but they take what they can get.
