Yes, Google forces OEM to include some of their apps and use some of their service components to carry the Android name. It's an outrage. Not at all open like Apple's dealings with their OE-er, wait

Gruber is definitely consigned to the killfile now - this is the most blindly partisan waste of bytes I've seen yet. We'd all do well to stop pouring so much collective time and energy into divisive, navel-gazing bullshit like this - and the cyclic exchanges that they inevitably spawn.
