There goes the privacy snake.
What happens when the list of pe-installed apps being asked is reduced ? I don't believe these countries which come up with this will always stick to the promise of *x" apps only... its only just to lure people to feel safe... the once caught, they'll do it how can like.
eg. If the list contain 8 apps.. how do we know it won't reduce to 3 over time? All of a sudden its not even a usefu list anymore as the majority of apps are now installed without asking since there no longer on the list... And privacy goes away as well.
Asking is all well and good, but in a county dominated by control anyway, how do you know it's not just to please Apple?
