No. This will conflict with EU laws.

Ahh, so the only thing saving us from a corporate dominated future is laws...

Well I'm an American, I'm sure if they wanted, they could always make a EU version and US version. I'm a bit worried for the future.

Android is open source, and there are many forks of it already. If they were to try this, those of us who care would just run a fork of Android.
