A long way ahead for freedom in Android. Not Replicant:


"Android is a major step towards an ethical, user-controlled, 
free-software portable phone, but there is a long way to go. Hackers are 
working on Replicant <http://replicant.us/about/>, but it's a big job to 
support a new phone model, and there remains the problem of the 
firmware. Even though the Android phones of today are considerably less 
bad than Apple or Windows smartphones 
<http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/smartphones>, they cannot be said 
to respect your freedom."
