To the comment by Chris C. I respect your opinions on Android and Google, you have a lot of valid reasons to believe what all you are saying about the corporations and the advertising.

I am happy to finally see others speak up to voice their valid opinions, frustrations, and awareness of the problems that exist with the current directions that mobile networks and their technology supplier corporations have done to the mass population.

People are not as stupid as they have been appearing to be for quite awhile now. Brainwashing would not be an exageration in my opinion. As a Communications Media Major, and longtime student of various public service industries; the most horrifying sight is watching all ages of people walking down 20 ft. I am referring to intelligent people. Not the real world in our lives we live in on a daily basis.

If you get more to speak up and do something in ways that make a difference, cool. I use only open source applications on all my computers and phones now, Windows lifer convert. Never been happier now I study programming and coding. I owned the first Droid that came out, several since. I watched having 3g. Now with 4g LTE, limited data, little music is all.

Never two apps at the same time without my battery dead by noon, even not using it once in hours. Google claims Android is not Linux, but that it is open source, as they support that; Nothing can be further from the truth.

I now could care less about any smart phone, tablet either. None are ever worth the money. I pay for data for my use, not theirs.
