It's become very annoying to see all the censorship news around the iPhone AppStore, it seems Android could be an operating system where developers will be able to see the full potential of their ideas make their way into people's pockets.

Like, proprietary stuff built on top of an open-source base? (Didn't they do that with Google Chrome?) Seems like Google is trapped in a bind: maybe they should change their tagline to "we're not (deliberately) evil, but since we're a corporation, we're required by law to 'externalize' all that morality bullshit, in search of short-term profitability.
