First thing is that Android is not open source. It's open core. Second thing go make android phone without signing NDA with Google, try to convince factories to sell you parts so you can make a mobile phone and wait until they say they don't want to be removed from Google official list.
Oh those companies do different things now so they're cool ? What things they do ? Siemens Mobile renamed and owned by Chinese, Alcatel licensed to TCL - Chinese. You're bragging aboout China being bad, but look those companies do different things they're good, they were forced to sell their business to China so they're good now.
It's all good, it's great. Great because you can install your linux. Very soon only on old hardware because they won't sell you new one without spyware and drm inside but well you're good. You can install things, but you can't install them on Playstation, you can't install them on Nintendo, on your coffe maker, on your washing machine, on your owen, on your car or anywhere you want. You can install things only where they allow you to do it and you're happy with that. LOL
I didn't say China was bad. I said Apple was bad.
And you can make a very good Android phone with AOSP. You won't have Google services but you could make your own app store like Huawei and Samsung have.
So China is good. Nice to hear that, at least I know with whom I am writing. What's next command comrade ?
I never said China was good either. I just said Apple are being jackasses.
Newsflash: there is no such thing as a good government or politician. They are typically all scumbags.
Seems Apple is following in their footsteps
There is difference between for profit company responsibilitires and government responsibilities. What EU did is in my opinion as an Apple user - they saw shit laying and they said let's spread this shit all over the people that use those products. That's what money penalty is and you're claiming it's fine and moreover you're claiming that products that I legally bought with full awareness what they are ( I was using custom AOSP) should be banned from country in which I was born. That's what I feal. What I feel is I should leave EU and Europe because it will kill itself by people like you. Well good luck with that attitude, becaue it would happen to you at some point and you will end up with no money whatsoever because some government administration worker will say you're guilty of doing something that is part of your income for years.
