Android system, Data collection, Data collector service, Data manager service, DataCollectorProvider, DataProfileService, any many more.

I didnt download any of these, they all come on the android phones. Like I said I know they need these permissions to route your calls and shit but how easy is it for them to invade your privacy and take advantage of those permissions.
yep something i will be researching more myself as I thought the same things you did when installing apps that ask for what seems like complete control of your phone
