Google may act like your best friend but they will sell your info to the highest bidder. They were okay when they first focused on Google internet search, but now it is so commercialized that you cannot trust the searches. Many of the search results are there only because the link owner paid Google a lot of money to make sure it is displayed.

And don't get me started on all the Android apps which do nasty things that eat your battery and compromise your cyber security. This is where Apple's closed system is actually helpful as Apple will reject apps that try to do these nasty things. IMHO opinion Android should be spelled And Roids because it is a bloody mess as well as a PITA!
This too... not too mention things that ignore your specific instructions to just go and do their own thing...
