Android is open source. It is not free software. The issue we're discussing right now should make the difference very clear.

Android that ships on the Google pixel is neither open source nor free software. It’s a proprietary OS based on AOSP.

The AOSP version of Android is both open source and free software. Open source and free software are both exactly the same thing.
