   Hi All,   
      
   My wife is considering replacing her outgoing Android   
   tablet with an iPad for the better quality hardware.   
      
   She is really angry at Google's interference/spying   
   on her Android tablet.  Samsung uses open source   
   Android, but builds their own spying into the firmware.   
   So not an improvement.   
      
   Is iPad any worse?  Is Apple also collecting information   
   on you and interfering with you as well?   
      
   Many thanks,   
   -T
