Saw this coming years ago.

One of the main advantages/problems with iOS is Apple has full control of what it does.
With Android being open source it makes it far more difficult to pull the wool over your eyes and easier to change.

If you were kidnapped this would be a useful feature. If you're a bad boy this is a dangerous feature.

For everyone else, what the heck.
