jeesh, I've read more comments then i care to mention. This is what i know. I use to promote Google apps, phones, services to anyone I'd meet on the street but frankly this has pissed me off to the point I'm now mum. I understand everyone's arguments on the open source and closed source parts and Google having the right to take these actions. However, I was a Google fan because of the support they gave to the open community and their special way of not being the typical BS corporation.
In my opinion, it's unfortunate that the legal team made this decision.
