Description

Exposure notifications seem to have been killed a while ago in Play Services, it even "works" with microG but not with a Play Certified device! But without Apple and Google devices and with the apps removed from the stores, having it in microG doesn't make much sense anymore.

The feature also seems to be somewhat broken, the UI always reports the toggle as being off for the feature
