But can't the Yellow Pages be charged with advertising (or rather, indexing) illegal services? I remember Google getting charged with serving up illegal drug ads.
They've been printed as recent as 2012: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_two-dollar_bill#1976.E2.80.93Present
Imagine if your phone had no "desktop" to speak of, and instead the ONLY UI available was an open list of ALL installed applications, taking up tons of screen space for nothing. THAT is Windows 8's UI, and it is universally DESPISED by everyone.
You have just described iOS. It has no "desktop" to speak of. Just a list of all your apps, and folders.
The difference here is that the glider launches itself and carries the launching mechanism with it. It likely can't launch itself over and over without human input though. I'm sure they can learn a lot from RC airframe design.
To remove your Google account (and therefore Google Play) from an android phone, you simply log out of the Google account. The Play Store is useless then. A factory reset (available on all androids I've used/seen), does the same, to a further degree (removing apps, etc).
The solution you're looking for is StickNFind. Low power bluetooth stickers. Link to your phone and when the "sticker" goes out of bluetooth range, an alarm goes off. You can then your phone as a proximity sensor to track down where your stuff went. http://www.indiegogo.com/sticknfind (to order), and http://sticknfind.com/product/ to learn.
I agree. The ISPs would likely disagree, but as a customer, I want to get good value. If I pay a fixed amount, and never use it, I'm getting poor value... You came close to saying it, but I think we should pay for what we use, just like every other utility. If I go on vacation, I shouldn't have to pay for water, I didn't use any. Same with electricity, and natural gas. So why do I pay for internet?
Based on my ISP's datacap and monthly costs, worst case (hitting cap), it's $0.248 per GB. Sounds reasonable. Tack on a base monthly fee (tax) to keep the lines up and growing, and it's a utility! Anyone can use the lines, as long as they pay the line fee.
