    good. fuck google and their horrendous business practices.

    when you get a new phone where android is the only option as an operating system, the first thing to appear when you turn it on is allowing google to own all of your data. if you decline, it says you must return your phone to the dealer or accept.

    fuck this mobster shit.

      Paying a billion dollars to the state government of Texas and getting out of being forced to make any changes to their products is just the continuation of mobster shit tho
