However, if you are familiar with the working of Android devices, you will know that not doing so is quite difficult, in some impossible (mostly smartphones), as is the case with RIM phones. I don't know about M$ phones or other smartphones. I haven't seen any discussion here, and more importantly, little action from the FOSS community, to amend this situation. Normally, etiquette is a social contract, the fulfilment of which needs social participation. Does the FOSS community purpose boycotting smartphones, or does it eschew the use of smartphones for participation in FOSS discussions? Or should we insist on adding disclaimers about the device being used for such participation, in order to excuse one's 'rude' behaviour?
