So for now we have at least two critical privacy (!) issues with the Ubuntu Phone. I really hope there are no mandatory cloud-based services coming anytime soon, otherwise it's just better to switch to Apple products directly (no privacy, but OS is stable).
Canonical, please consider that some of the users backing Ubuntu Phone do this mainly because of the privacy problems in Apple/Google/MS products. -- Regards, Alexander Zaval Creative Engineering Group http://www.zaval.org --------------------------------- Saturday, July 18, 2015, 9:36:19 PM, you wrote: MA> El día Saturday, July 18, 2015 a las 08:23:48PM +0100, Marco A.
