Whoa settle down.

I said probably nobody will read it but you can. Not sure what's ignorant about that. There's so much junk on any app store you make it sound like people are just reading all the source code of everything all day. A perfect example is OpenSSL. And heart bleed

My second paragraph shows you don't know what you're talking about. Most people are going to jam that "allow while using app" permission. So sketch web browser app could just be listening 24/7, or only when it needs. Maybe microphone isn't the best example since most phones have an indicator these days. But it will apply across other types of permissions. Once you allow Snapchat to read your contacts so you can "find who else is using snapchat", you think it stops there? Or are they always scanning your contacts without you knowing, just silently monitoring for updates?

You're lashing out at both a user and an advocate for FOSS. But to not admit its potential weaknesses is ignorant.

Yes. The advertisement company needs to set standards on how they make money off children. Yes...

Ya but also most that stuff is open source and the actual android package lets you know what permissions are going to be used.

Open up a web browser you found on fdroid and it prompts for permission to always listen to audio? Well it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that probably isn't a wise decision.

Also probably nobody is going to read the source code, but you can...

This looks like a spot in the video game the Witcher 3, but there's like a small castle there. Nice shot
