In Android you have the four freedoms. You can run it for any purpose, be it a Nokia phone, Samsung phone, your custom made phone, tablet or any other device you wish to. You can get the source code and make changes. You also have the freedom to distribute the copies, or redistribute the modified copies. Thus Android follows the four Freedoms cited in the Free Software Definition. Google also have the freedom to not accept your crap code. So, if you are unsatisfied, just fork the project and name in Aneeshdroid or whatever! It is better than ranting here! Please learn the facts before arguing. http://maheshmohan.co.in -മഹേഷ് മോഹന് എം.യു -- "Freedom is the only law".
