  • Android becomes world's most used OS online, Apple's iOS & macOS trail

    Apparently, Android now makes more profit in their App Store than Apple.
    Android's app stores are expected to surpass the App Store in revenue sometime this year. However, they certainly are not expected to surpass the App Store in profit.

    And what does it mean? Do the ads concern you or just the fact they "know" something?

    If the latter why would you even bother with internet activities as there's thousands of companies and organizations (probably millions) besides Google who are tracking what you say, what you visit and what you buy.

    So you stay off the internet and out of Google's eyes and you're safe right? Nope, not if the concern is not being followed. Off-line it's your credit-card provider, pharmacy, insurance company, bank, box-store retailer, grocery store, magazine, club, homeowners association or landlord, city, county and state, etc who's keeping track of you. All Google wants to do in show you an ad. What are these others actually doing with your information? If Google makes you sick what's your reaction to these others? Honest questions.
    It's not that they know something, it's more what they might know. I might consider some info on my tech to be more personal than any of my info elsewhere. I choose very carefully what I want to be known, so I also choose very carefully what products and services I use. If someone's data is being collected, they may never truly know how it's being used.

    With regards to my last sentence, I was just acknowledging that they tell you they collect certain data, so you can at least know what you're getting into.

    And anything collecting information about myself to profit off of, or to be used in any other way, makes me sick(the act itself makes me sick.)
