It's taken Google until their 13th major release to copy iOS's permissions model. Apple is not afraid of using good ideas, no matter where they originate. Obviously, Google is.

Right. Because Android's toolkits are used on every other platform under the sun.
Windows Phone is probably in a better position in terms of code portability than either iOS or Android, but really UI is so different that having the same toolkit only gets you so far, no matter which platform you're starting from.
You are obviously a complete and total idiot. Please stop commenting. Ever.
You have been able to load publicly-hosted web-content within an app's UIWebView from the very first day that such views were available in the SDK. That would be iPhoneOS 2.0, for those not familiar with the SDK evolution.
Your reasoning is way off. Apple does exactly what you claim they didn't want to do all the time. Siri is not supported on some models that run iOS 7. The new multi-tasking in iOS 9 (multiple on-screen apps) is only supported on newer iPads, and not the iPhone at all, not even the 6+. So basically, you're so completely wrong it's not even funny.
Freedom of Speech has never implied freedom from responsibility.
The owners of the company deserve the most painful death imaginable. The lawyers should be tortured for several decades before following the owners in the same manner of death.
You and the mod who chose Interesting are fucking idiots. Go kill yourselves to make the world a better place.
You are both ignorant and a retarded moron.
If you aren't a good programmer, moving up to management will most likely make you a not good manager. There is a rare exception but most programmers aren't great people people which a good manager has to be.
This comment makes no sense at all. Programming and management are completely different skills. Lacking one does not in any way imply a lack of the other.
It sounds like you're ignorant. Remind us why you're paid at all?
Engineering (any discipline) and management (of people) are completely different skills. There are good and bad in both fields. The good do a lot of work and are productive, the bad don't. It doesn't matter what field they're in.
Those who believe that any hitting of a child is abuse are, or will be, raising monsters. I hope you're sterile.
What definition of nude do you use that doesn't include toplessness?
You are a complete moron. One who has probably never been allowed to touch someone of the opposite gender.
Female breasts are sex objects. Until males of our species stop being turned on by the sight or touch of them, they will be sex objects. The end.
You are so absolutely moronic that even your parents want to forget you.
Please stop torturing those around you and kill yourself already.
In 2008, the Washington Post reported on a University of Washington study which found that teenagers who received comprehensive sex education were 60% less likely to get pregnant than someone who received abstinence-only education.
A 2007 federal report found that abstinence-only programs have had "no impacts on rates of sexual abstinence," reported ThinkProgress.
In a 2011 study published in the journal PLOS One, researchers found a similar correlation between a state's commitment to abstinence education and pregnancy rates.
One of the most interesting and notable examples of this phenomenon comes out of Texas, which, according to ThinkProgess, has one of the highest rates of teen pregnancy in the country and a track record of strict abstinence-only education.
