The sad part is that the smartphone could've been the ultimate security device. It could've made us, our identity, accts, health, etc, almost untouchable even if a stranger found the device. However, we're a country of opportunistic hucksters, and the greediest motherfuckers among us are the ones behind selling all that away to the top bidder. Android was designed as an ad and notification delivery system. It lets anyone that pays have a crack at keeping someone's attention by using their behavior as a key.
