It isn't really a fair comparison; Cyanogenmod has no legal liability for releasing flawed upgrades.

- jrockway 14y agoDo carriers? The contract I signed with AT&T was pretty onerous. For you. For AT&T, it says they can come into your house and take any and all children of yours whenever they want. They wrote the contract and you have no choice but to agree, so they're certainly not going to go out of their way to be nice to you. (Their logo is the frickin' Death Star, after all!)
- ceejayoz 14y agoThat's my point. They've set up the contracts so they don't have much more legal liability for flawed upgrades than Cyanogenmod does.
- esrauch 14y agoEven if AT&T isn't held to certain liabilities, if an OTA bricks peoples phones and they don't do anything about it it would be a media shitstorm.
