It's so weird to me that an advertising company would sell a phone. It feels so dystopian.

- electriclove 2y agoDid you also feel this way when Amazon and Facebook/Meta were making (or close to making) phones?
- nightski 2y agoYes, why would I not? I don't buy computing devices from any of them... Google phones are straight up a data harvesting device for Google lol.

- HumblyTossed 2y agoYou should be happy. If Google didn't produce Android*, we would only have a single phone operating system and thus only a single provider of phones. *And why produce Android without also producing a showcase phone?
- nightski 2y agoI'm really not happy tbh. Android started out as a relatively open thriving open OS/ecosystem. It's since evolved into something much different due to Google and it's objectives. It's also just plain not realistic. The industry would of evolved differently had it not been for android and other operating systems may have been picked up by the alternative manufacturers such as Samsung.
