Google Gives Users More Control Over Bloatware in Android 6.0

Google won’t be able to force OEMs and carriers to let users uninstall bloatware that comes on our phones, but in Android 6.0, users will have more control over what data these apps are able to collect. As per the Android 6.0 CDD, pre-installed apps will not be automatically granted access to permissions. So users will be able to choose what type of data bloatware can access.
