Compile it and run it, you are inventory of Google for compiling free source code that you can modify however you want? Where do you get the source code like that to compile for Windows?
- gaius 9y ago1) windows source code is very easy to get, under the shared source license 2) you have no assurance that that’s what running on the handset nor what’s in the firmware or the driver binary blobs
- braderhart 9y ago@gaius: Now I'm blocked from responding to you. The only source code I could find for Microsoft, is for debugging, and doesn't give you access to all the source. You have to use a smart card that they send as well. Here is the license for Android: https://source.android.com/setup/licenses https://source.android.com/setup/licenses Where is the license for Winblows?
- gaius 9y agoYou’re not blocked, HN just rate-limits comments :-)
- braderhart 9y agoGood to know that my anti-Microsoft messages aren't being entirely censored.
