It's only open source until Google decides that they don't want someone else using the "Open Source" code and files a court injunction as was done last week.
And your proof of this claim is...what, exactly?
Perhaps you are referring to an incident from about 2-3 weeks ago, when a ROM modder was sent a cease-and-desist letter by Google for including closed-source applications in his Android ROMs. The consensus opinion is that Google was legally right but clumsy in how they handled this incident. However, misrepresenting what happened helps nobody.
If you are going to bash, bash evenly.
Better yet, bash factually.
In the interest of full disclosure, per my sig, I'm involved in the Android development community.
