You are yapping your ass off. This is a hardware mod, not a software package. Its literally using a custom storage controller chip that only physically unlocks the connection to the secret storage once it detects a certain key file on the decoy storage. They would have to xray the drive individually at close range with high resolution and know a lot about electronics to even come close to figuring out that something is different. There is no way to detect a fake USB HID so unless they open it they wont be noticing shit.

People dont WANT to you to find them by phone number. Its not a bug and its not happening randomly, people are just enabling the very good setting that prevents others from finding them by their phone number.

Lots of little pieces of data about your setup. Combined together they create a combination that is extremely unique and allows companies to track you across the web.

Uuuh yeah just like with any proprietary device or software in the world with a network connection and an auto update feature. That shouldnt be news to anyone.

Google arent really opening anything up (not in a meaningful way), so its happening for neither.

They are tying pay and benefits to your personal AI usage, last i heard, so its not that they are freely deciding to use this shit.
