excuse me?? I’m being honest and truthful

That’s unfortunate because your posts make you look very dishonest. In one post you are unfamiliar with basic topics and in the next you seem to be well informed about some of their obscure failed projects.

If you’re not a paid actor then you’re someone who just likes to provoke people online which makes you an asshole as well.

Just assume every closed source application to be adversarial and don’t bother installing it on a personal device.

On some mobile OSes I guess? Not on stock Android (AOSP) I’m afraid.

This. I own a Mojang account because I paid for minecraft (I thought) and I cannot play anymore because apparently I bought an account and not a game.

I don’t think intimate details about a person is a companies intellectual property.

as they mainly use the motor for breaking.

For moderate braking at higher speeds sure, but not for your causal stoppages at intersections or heavier braking events.

Well, personally I could do without and if it reduces costs I’m for it. Raspberry pi was always about being cheap.
