I don't expect a short term solution. Where did you read that?
If we keep android the way it is and just slowly boil the frog, there will be little to no incentive to spend lots of money and time on alternatives. If you seriously believe the majority isn't already getting fucked over by Scroogle and their spy devices, what world do you live in?
There isn't going to be an acceleration for a non-android phone if android still stays "acceptable". It's not like investments and developments in alternatives are going faster than bureaucracy. When do you expect we get a big third or fourth competitor in the smartphone OS market? Harmony by Huawei?
This is what the thread is about. No one is talking about privacy, that's a completely different discussion.
