Aye, I've seen this misconception before and suspect it's specific countries in the European continent where you have to register.

I don't know if you're in the UK right now but I can tell you right now that I can go round the corner and buy a SIM card in cash plus a top-up voucher, from someone like this guy

No you don't.

I can go to the corner shop/local garage right now, buy a SIM card for 99p and then buy a top-up voucher in cash to have a completely anonymous phone number.

Albeit is the UK in Europe again? 🙈

edit: where I would be worried if my privacy was on the line is I could also go to the local pawn shop / Cash Converters to ensure that SIM card isn't associated with an IMEI I've previously used and buy in cash a cheapo phone.

:facepalm:

Completely missed the non-capitalisation on the HTC one. Oops

I had both HTC One's and while the camera on both of them especially the m7 was dire purple durple shite, the battery life was never an issue for me and was when I first started seeing 6hr+ SOT constantly.

The music industry needs to die off already.

You know what I find it akin to in the industry I work in and I know this gonna cause some controversy - but the 9-5 Mon-Fri managers we have at work.

I work something called Continental shifts which are basically days/nights/days/nights on a A/B/C/D rota throughout the space of a month.

What I find telling is we run absolutely fine on weekend days and all our night shifts but, we have these what I'm going to call leeches (but the controversial term is.....Office Drones) just like the copyright fuckwads illustrated here that suddenly appear throughout the week and are a general nuisance?

They really don't do anything I can see that benefits the company/industry other than sending emails etc for others to send them a report that's readily available/start bullshit investigation etc.

They make me grumble these leeches :/

You'd think they'd include an ethernet port on the device itself.

Or, hopefully they include a power brick with a RJ45 port. WiFi for streaming large high bitrate files is less than ideal especially if it's touted as a set top streaming box.

I'm lost. Why is this ruining Android?

Who the fuck are these guys OP?

Lots and lots of sticker packs.

Have you got any sources for Motorola phones coming with spyware on them?

Starting with version 0.19.0 voting also counts as being active.

aka, the lurkers 👀

I've always upvoted both posts that are on topic to the community and always to people who take the time out of their day to reply.

It's like common courtesy to me and votes are like free confetti anyways.

So I suppose the OP's figures are, off.
