  > AOSP ... is more open AOSP is not an Android, stop lying, googleboy.

    Oh, it is ironic that the troll making wrong claims is the one calling others liars. Are you more than 10?
    • zwattt 13y ago
      The typical googleboy's discussion - anyone who criticize google is troll.
  • hahainternet 13y ago
    Yes it is. I'm not a Google employee, although I would be if I could because at least they're doing interesting stuff.
• threeseed 13y ago
  Being "more open" than the alternatives doesn't make it "open".
  • hahainternet 13y ago
    You're right. Being Apache licensed makes it open. Therefore it's open.
    • zwattt 13y ago
      There are Apache- and other permissive licensed parts in iOS - so iOS is "open platform"?
      • hahainternet 13y ago
        No, because iOS is not Apache licensed. You're obviously a troll account though so you know, try harder.
        • zwattt 13y ago
          But Android is not Apache licensed, only some parts, like in iOS. You know it and you still lying.
          • hahainternet 13y ago
            It's not like iOS, and I expect you'll end up banned soon enough for trolling, so just give up. Android is AOSP. AOSP is Apache. https://source.android.com/ https://source.android.com/ QED.

              > Android is AOSP No, Android is AOSP + GMS, googleliar.
              • hahainternet 13y ago
                'googleboy' and 'googleliar' aren't really good insults, I'm not a Google employee. You might buy an Android with GMS, but you might buy one with Amazon's framework, or none whatsoever. It's down to the manufacturer and distributor of the device you purchase.

                dammit, when did trolls like this make their way to HN?
