      No, they don’t. And even if they needed to, they can do it without me knowing it. When was the last time Play gave you an update notification, let alone one that contained Play Services?

          You can’t disable those without breaking GMS. Feel free to try though! And again, there is no guarantee that is what actually breaks Safetynet.
