"Since /e/OS is not a security-hardened mobile OS, it is targeting standard industry practices. Therefore, for a given release on month N, our current work-flow is to integrate Android security patches from month N-1. As a result, in the worst case, it will take up to 9 weeks to roll out the latest available security updates"
Also, they are slow for security updates.
Also they might not removing all Google services from their phones.
They were not transparent about their privicy usage before.
