a kill button comes later in the process. on android apps start in the background without being initiated by the user. windows had the simple "msconfig" to change that, linux doesnt even lets apps get startup permissions without asking user to enter their password and agree. but on android its the opposite. every app will start whenever the app developer wants it to. it will start and it will use your internet and send your location and your messages and the name of your grandma to the developers server and google and whoever the developer wants it to. and i dont see any escape from this.
