Who's applauding? I'm not rooting for Google, but if you buy a stock Android device with the idea that Google is looking out for you, you're an idiot. They have shown time and again that they are evil, but you buy a device and think, "Android is for digital outlaws, like me." you're delusional.

I use Android because the phones are dirt cheap. Most of these sort of phones are sold either at cost or at a loss, so it's hard to complain.
