I pulled out the fire 10 tablet my husband got me last year 2020 Xmas.
It's a nice tablet…
There is sooooooooooo
Ooooooooo
Oooooooooooo much bloatware on it that it puts getting a PC from Best Buy in 1999 to shame. Your machine is hostage with non manufacturers junk apps that you don't want and have to pay to remove.
I mean, you can't even get through setup without opting to enable/disable stuff for Amazon shopping.
I understand it though, it's Amazon's thing and they do provide a pleasant and convenient shopping experience- my opinion only..you guys might think it sucks, I don't know..ups and downs for all things.
It's just that, like with google and others… that convenience starts dipping into security and privacy…. Bad for the unknown and vulnerable. Some people don't mind, some are oblivious like in 2002 and not passwording their AP, some just stay away because…No matter how many checkboxes you turn off….is it really off?
Here at the house, wee's screwed.
Apple listening
Alexa's listening
Google nest home got unplugged
Roku is listening
Samsung is listening
Fack! I just want sit in the woods with no electronics looking at what I just typed.
Listening to our interracial household..They probably think we are the most racist and non politically correct household in America and so confused about the various conversations, slurs, and practical jokes they spy on.
I stiiiiil have a Kyocera rugged flip phone that is Verizon 4g. It gets email, web, just no smart apps.
If I get pissed off enough, the SIM card can easily make that leap….
