I have the following 2 Processes & 16 Services running in google Play
1.ExposureMatchingService
2.DeviceConnectionWatcherService
3.GCMService
4.PendingIntentCallbackService
5.ContextManagerService
6.Authenticator service
7.ReceiveSurfaceService
8.CableAuthenticatorService
9.EmergencyPersistentService
10.LockScreenService
11.SchedulerService
12.GoogleLocationService
13.ClearcutDebugDumpService
14.LocationPersistentService
15.DiscoveryService

DroidGuardService is in use

Processes
Com.google.android.gms.persistent
Com.google.android.gms.unstable

I Know some of them to be deprecated due to associations with some malware. The Location persistent Service cant be stopped so as it says its persistent.

Anything here i should be concerned about?

Hi they are on two devices. Both Sony Xperia (xz3 and 10iii}
Both devices are personal ie no MDM (or at least there shouldn't be).
I asked Google for an appraisal of what each dies and they have point blank refused which just annoying and counterproductive. I know some of them are deprecated and some are aligned to COVID but I'm posted out of most things on my Google account so they shouldn't be running. All I want to know is what do they do and why they are running.
