Why do people use this OS, again? It doesn't have any privacy at all. At least with Apple I could trust them not to use my data for evil purposes.

Last I checked Apple joined PRISM same as everybody else.

Last I checked Apple has been sued over iPhone geolocation schemes without user consent.

Last I checked The Fappening happened.

Last I checked iOS is just as laggy as Android once you update your iDevice beyond the version it came ootb with.

Last I checked /g/ is full of dicksucking Apple trolls.

Yeah, Android is so so on most phones.

But iOS is limited as fuck. It doesn't even have homescreen widgets.
Also have to use iTunes just to copy some files for fucks sake.

Feels like bait. I really wonder how you fags manage to fuck up a phone so badly. You guys sound like the average wintard that is surprised that the taylorswift.mp3.exe is actually a virus and not a mp3 file.

Android is the Wndows Vista of the mobile world.

iOS is Linux

Ubuntu is OS X
