Sadly Google Keyboard is the only good keyboard app left. I have internet permission blocked on it so I have actual privacy, and there's not too much bloat. I was excited by a really nice FOSS keyboard app called FlorisBoard, but unfortunately it looks like it was abandoned right before they released the update that fixed auto correct. They even had glide typing working.
All of the internet access is offline, it can't connect at all
My custom OS let's you block the keyboard outright from the internet, and I have.
And it shows because not even the gif keyboard works.
That's mobile background data, that's a different thing. I use a custom ROM that lets me completely revoke the network permission. It's not available on stock afaik.
