And there I was seriously considering getting one. Greed is ruining good things again.
I don't understand how this move is even supposed to make them more money.
My guess is they're going to slow down the device on new android and block rooting so you can't install your own OS, also, probably doing a lot of spying on the users.
Again? I didn't realize the ride had stopped for a bit. .
