I din't make an argument about "bootleg", I just used the term and you argued it. Besides, depending on the actual OSI license, you can definitely have bootlegs if you really care to argue. A bootleg does not need to be exploited commercially. It can just be counterfeit. I am not insulting you. I am telling you that you are being overly pedantic while being wrong at the same time. You might find this difficult to accept but I'm just calling it.

You started arguing about it: > I said bootleg Android didnt I? And you're still doing it. Just let it go. It doesn't matter, your argument is wrong either way. Also, please stop insulting me.

  You are just not making any sense. Your very first comment is the one taking offense with the word 'bootleg' erroneously... If your worry is about phone-home, no need to mention Android specifically. This happens with all off the shelf phones. Point is about a phone that has an OS that looks like what you would expect and just doesn't do what you expect. Obviously you didn't understand what I had written so I had to call you on that. You may feel insulted, does not mean that I am insulting you. Anyway, just so that it is clear. Probably should end the conversation here so no one feels insulted any further.

    > You are just not making any sense. Your very first comment is the one taking offense with the word 'bootleg' erroneously... No, my first comment is this: > Everyone who buys an Android phone. This is about the opposite, an option to buy a phone that does not do that. It doesn't say anything about "bootleg." > Obviously you didn't understand what I had written so I had to call you on that Again, please stop insulting me. > You may feel insulted, does not mean that I am insulting you. Look, I want to give you the benefit of the doubt, but it's really difficult. Do you genuinely not understand that the following things you said are insulting? "So pedantic, you must be fun at parties." "you are being overly pedantic while being wrong at the same time. You might find this difficult to accept but I'm just calling it." I do understand that some people lack social awareness and therefore don't understand when they are being insulting, so it's possible that you genuinely do not realize how you come across. I am telling you now, though, that saying things like these is, in fact, insulting, regardless of your intent. So if you genuinely did not intend to insult me, I hope you will now stop writing stuff like that.

      Well if pointing out where you are mistaken is insulting, excuse me but I will keep being rude. Feel free to quit the conversation. What you do not seem to understand is that with a normal Android distribution, you expect a phone home tied to the manufacturer of your phone. Matter fact, as I pointed to you but you conveniently ignored, it does not have to be an 'Android' phone. It is the same for Apple and their iphones and pretty much all off the shelf phones. Not need to single out Android if your point is not about the fact that I said 'bootleg' Android... With a bootleg Android, you forego any security, beyond the phone home. ANd you wouldn't even find someone to speak to about it. What is so difficult to understand?
