in pinephone reg and pro, there is eg25g modem chip. which is like small computer. basically computer within computer. eg25g chip uses fastboot. so eg25g uses some aosp software projects, these projects do not communicate using internet and are open source.
everything what google does, is not closed. google still has some open source projects, like aosp. many of them do not do anything with internet, only locally. (aosp development is controlled by google, and i think google will partially close aosp in the future though).
eg25g is quectel's chip with quectel's code. quectel uses adb and fastboot for some issues like updating.
if i know correctly, even pinephone linux based operating systems uses some google's code. such code is open source and depending on a case is part of aosp.
see following, is you plan to use stock firmware, i recommend 30.007 version and following modifications for both stock and sdk. so i have some differences with biktorg's view.
