Or, even worse, leaving it.
And that's why i currently wouldn't want a Russian phone.
Face it, nobody gives a damn about you in Russia, plus we have no such resources.

And all that fuss about the NSA that probably doesn't care about any of us either, amirite ? Btw- Russian bloggers that objected the Russian annexation of Crimea have been prosecuted. It's not that far fetched to worry a little about freedom of speech in your country, is it ?

Quite funny that we're speculating about Russian backdoors and spying because we watched too many US movies in the 80s, while we know for a fact that the US have actually forced that stuff all over their ubiquitous OSes and clouds, and gag the vendors from telling us about it.

If i write a mail on an Android phone stating that i'll fly to London to agitate people to vote yes on the Brexit and to tell everyone that Cameron is the worst politician the UK has ever seen, that mail is probably read by the NSA. Reaction ? Nevermind- dismiss.
And don't tell me this is too farfetched. There have already been cases of people having had their online payments rejected because they live on Isis Close.
It is maybe because I have lived on the wrong side of the curtain that I can see warning signals that those who have never experienced a totality are still blind to. It is why I maintain that until they start dropping bombs on your head, there is nothing you have to fear from the other side's government. It is your own government you should be wary of. I hope I am wrong but as of yet, I am still to be convinced.

In finland near where I live is a community called Pornainen and the community pages frequently get blocked/censored because of their name...
