| From: Russell Reiter <rreiter91@gmail.com> | This looks like a false flag operation to me. Skull vs. Bones. Not sure what you mean. Are you saying that Cyanogen Inc. might be simply a spoiling attack from Microsoft on Google/Android under the Cyanogen Inc. flag? | From: Lennart Sorensen <lsorense@csclub.uwaterloo.ca> | So of course at this point any sane person would know that Cyanogen is | not to be trusted at all. Don't make any deal with them, because they | don't care about you at all. Yeah. I wonder how much damage this does to One+One owners in the future. | I wonder if even Microsoft might start to regret getting involved | with them. Perhaps not if the aim is just to bring disrepute and confusion to the Android world. What I don't understand is how much Cyanogen Mod is just Cyanogen Inc. I always thought that Cyanogen Mod was a real plus for the Android community and hence probably useful for Google. For one thing, it was a way of keeping the device manufacturers a little in line (if the device manufacturers went too far, their customers would jump ship to CM). For another, it meant Android had some hacker cred. I am now (with insufficient research) thinking that I might want to avoid CM so as to stay out of the clutches of CI.
