   I don't disagree that both Apple & Google (and Microsoft too) screw their   
   customers trying to make a buck off of them, but what's unique isn't that.   
      
   What's unique to Android that no other operating system does, is Android   
   saves every installer automatically. The installer is always there.   
      
   And that's good.   
      
   What's unique to iOS that no other operating system does is Apple   
   deceitfully inserts a unique tracking ID into every app you install.   
      
   And that's bad.
