Ahh, that's where that went.... I couldn't find it in my apps and figured I'd removed it.

There are a slew of Android TV remote apps that do all this and more, like including home/back buttons, integrated search etc. They also pair easier. The first party Google TV app covers this smoother than a BT keyboard/mouse app.
IMO the thing is that people don't care about their privacy. Sure, some people around here do, but your average person owns an Alexa, has a FB/Instagram account and constantly posts their location, uses the same password on many sites, uses TikTok, doesn't block cookies, etc etc etc.
Most people don't actually care. Some claim they do, but then can't even be bothered to stop using Instagram etc because of the "inconvenience"... So do they really care?
Some companies (Apple, etc) push their products under a narrative around safety and security, and people will repeat that point as a way to justify a decision they already made, but if they actually cared, they would be doing other things too. But they don't.
The number of us who do actually care about privacy and security is actually very small.
The official one doesn't. I've used a couple others that didn't.
