One had it set to paused, no idea how it was ever turned on. The other never had it turned on.

What pisses me off is that it bricks my Galaxy Nexus...if I want to stop using Google stuff.

i definitely think we need consumer protection laws that allows us to safeguard/protect against info collection....there needs to be a guaranteed opt out clause that isn't conditional on the product's use...

You mean the ad tracking?

OH NO

I HAVE ADBLOCK

WHATEVER WILL I DO



Such a simple and free tool yet the majority of people still don't even know about it. I wonder if they knew it can block youtube video ad's too....
