I've made my peace, somewhat, with my phone activity being tracked and everything. But this point about smartphones trying to mimic PCs is where I draw the line. I don't like the push for everything mobile to replace everything desktop/PC because I frankly don't trust smartphones to be powerful enough and secure enough to handle much more than to-do lists, social media or the occasional bank transfer (never done on a public wi-fi network of course). Of course I'm stubborn in preferring a full-sized keyboard, mouse and I dunno...computer for tasks like programming, photo editing (no, putting filters on photos is not what I consider photo editing) and gaming but that's how I think smartphones should be used vs. full-fledged computers.

Why make your peace with it, fight it!
