most of the software in the android app market is malware claiming to be freeware
showing ads in software violates user privacy as ad rendering is "cross domain": the same finite set of ad servers across ALL sites the user ever visits. how is this not malware?
the COST of ads is loss of privacy: this is not in the best interest of the user, this is ANTITHETICAL to free, this is malware per se
any software that shows ads is malware
all adware is malware

most google software is spyware: google profits from information collection and displaying ads targeted to harvested information. Even when people knowingly install such software it is no less spyware or malware. Google Chrome is spyware: why else would google assign every user a UNIQUE non-cookie id? All the better to track you with my dear.
(Iron, built on chromium like chrome is built on chromium, however is not spyware. SRware makes Iron. Use Iron if you want chromium goodness. Iron comes with adblocking)
most software in the android market is malware posing as freeware. that software which renders internet ads is: adware (showing ads), spyware (collecting information about which sites one uses and which applicaiton one uses, and details about one's phone), and malware (acting against the best interest of the user). Root your android phone (with z4root or SuperOneClick) and install DroidWall, Permissions Denied, Privacy Blocker, Tasker, and LBE privacy guard to stop most of that shit.
"paying" developers by allowing them to privacy rape you is FOOLISH. That COST is too high
spyware is ANTITHETICAL to free (opposite of free)
