It can though via IPCs regardless of the network toggle. Although still a viable option but I wouldn't bank on the fact it's fully private with network toggle off.

I'm assuming IPC is interprocess communication? And the hypothesis is that Gboard would ask other (network connected) processes about your activity and also SEND packets to Google by ferrying them along on the network work that these other processes are doing?

That doesn't sound impossible, but a bit far-fetched. Do you have any references that show this happening in general?

Absolutely zero references 🤣 its all hyperthetic hence still a viable option.

I don't think it's too far fetched for Gboard to send usage data to Play Services that do have network access. I'm guessing less of a concern (if a concern for use case) if Play Services aren't installed.
