huh?
I give it a week before someone realises that this is a mistake put in by a new
junior lawyer.
Or my worries about Google get bigger (and I look into hosting my own email), I
suppose.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

The more I think about it, the less it bothers me. From what I read it's jut a
re-distribution ban, it's still free-as-in-beer. With all the possibilities of
embedded trojans and rootkits being stealthily built in to your apps from a
tainted SDK, would you trust getting the SDK from any one else than Google?[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Um, I don't believe the SDK was ever open source. Doesn't change the fact that
Android itself still is.
And the only reason they're doing it now is because for the first time since
Android was released, someone is trying the old Embrace & Extend trick
(creating a clone of Android with a clone of the Google Play Store that looks
like Android, they claim is compatible with Android, but actually isn't).[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
