Label products which use Google Firebase or other Google dependencies

Now that it bundles AdMob, Google Ads, Crashlytics, etc., and is developed by a team composed of more marketers than engineers, Firebase is the equivalent of Google Analytics but for mobile apps rather than websites.

But it doesn’t necessarily mean all those things are being used, as in the case of Bitwarden. We mention this in the Note admonition on this page. Likewise it’s entirely possible to do tracking server side and have “no trackers” in the application ie. Facebook.

Even websites like Exodus that simply look at the imports can’t relied upon.
