Nice! And they will probably differentiate from the competition by allowing GPL applications and sideloading, and having a total control for your privacy and no tracking, right?

Probably will just be more like their own flavor of Android where they lock down the OS and insert all kinds of malware.

I know there's sarcasm here, but the article did state an sdk will be available so apps need ported.
