Good luck building up this section of the forum.

I've no use for hypothetical advice that is untried by another and does not work on what may be a defective unit.

I'm not the least bit surprised you folks seem unable to comprehend the idea of who owns what info and what level of privacy one can expect by merely having info on a device and then how much less a rational human should expect upon uploading the same info to the net.

Try asking those on your contacts list, especially the ones who fiercely guard what little privacy they can maintain, if they mind you storing all info you have on them on your online email account.

It has nothing to do with my level of kookiness or paranoia

I'll ceheck in from time to time to see if you passionate android experts manage to raise the bar with usful info.
