267 267  If you notice the bloatware removal command we used above, it contains ‘**user 0**‘ parameter. It means that the apps you uninstalled using ADB shell pm uninstall -k ~-~-user 0, were only removed for the current user (user 0). If someone else uses your phone with a guest account, all the removed apps will still be available to him.
