It's so boring to read comments on here about how everything could be a text displaying webpage. Internet everywhere in your pocket is a waste for toilet reading. But it's also frustrating how the ecosystem of Google and Apple, has stifled creativity in the space. We went to the moon with less computing power than a crappy PC in the 90s. People copying Google's model of basic functionally but with ads and Apple's overly protective but nearly useless permission model has ruined a technology that should be more revolutionary than it is. Some of it needs to be solved legislatively. I absolutely should be able to have my entire contacts list read by a random game app, and the only consequence be that I found all my friends who also play the game, with steep penalties for collecting and selling that data. But I should also be able to vet and use my mobile computer to put anything on it I want.
