Yeah Android might have copied IOS. But why not. Android would have been developed any way sooner or later. It is based on Linux. And that is open sourced.

Honestly what is wrong with 'just works'. If the policies behind the project and the security and privacy is all in place using this option is nothing wrong.

I think they should've added in brackets with the second point saying "hopefully"
