Even memes or slightly (to them) offensive comments or messages can land you in detention.

You would have to have zero messages, social profiles or anything like it on that phone.

And no references or logins to that private server.

It allows stupid people to have a community where they feel smart, and that they know something most people don’t.

I bet that’s not something they are used to

Drop the “smart” part of the tv and use an external device like the Shield TV, heck even Apple TV is better than anything running WebOS or Tizen

They still do their bloated framework and launcher outside the US.

And then they start scanning your files, for your safety and “the children”. Find something they don’t like. Might even be perfectly legal, and close your account. Because AI…

Puff, gone are your files and you have zero way to appeal.

There is NO cloud… only someone else’s computer…

Wouldn’t Netflix’s password sharing fall under the same law then?

They use user information like connected wifi and position data to determine if a device is used away from the defined “home”.

As long as they can keep people on the platform, they keep the cash from the app store flowing.

I’m stunned with how bad it was and why they hell they didn’t use the same strategy that made Windows popular… The apps.

My work back then gave me a Windows Phone. Very few of the apps I had on my Android phone was available for my work phone.

On top of that a lot of things simply didn’t work. One thing I still remember was that Alarm volume and Ring tone volume could not be adjusted individually.

The whole thing felt like they wanted to reinvent the wheel and started from absolute scratch without learning from the innovation in the past decade of mobile phones.

It’s sad, a third competitor in the smartphone space wouldn’t have been a bad thing.

Removed by mod

It seems like they are going out of their way to remove good features. Like they removed the option to right click the taskbar and open task manager. They since added it back, but only because of user demand.

They have removed quick access to disabling the network, seeing and changing ip settings.

I can’t remember all the annoying issues, but there’s a lot.

I hate that it has become a general thing to ruin user experience and possibilities of customization. Google is doing the same with android.

No no, religion is bullshit, sooo methane?

You mean British English and Simplified English?

But then comes the issue, which government? As Starlink is global infrastructure.

On the bright side, he should have all the time in the world to code, after going to prison.

Realized?? They knew all the time, and didn’t give a shit.

It’s more likely that they have pushed too far, and users are pushing back. They will dial it back a bit, and hope people forget.

Hell, I would even have accepted a subscription to be able to use Boost; and I hate subscription based services.

They had opportunity to earn a lot of money and not alienate their users. With profit from 3party apps and companies using reddit for AI data. With realistic pricing.

But Spez (Fuck u), acted like a spoiled vendictive little brat and burned everything down, because of his fragile ego.

Just take a look at the mail and phone conversation, and subsequent lies about what was said; between Spez and the Apollo developer. To see I’m not making this up.

British people do…

Nah, at that time AudioGalaxy was in full spring and I was rocking the MZ-R30 Minidisc walkman.

Nah, Americans just mistake subsidized healthcare and prohibitive gun laws as actual communism
