Apps Galore

 I hate apps. I really hate them. I just want a mobile phone, text is fine. The demands by folks that to use their product/service means adding their app to my phone is intrusive and necessary.

If necessary I can add to my computer. There I have tone of room, great security, and I can print out stuff I need. In fact my computer(s) have all sorts of things like a keyboard I can type on instead of those tiny touch screens that auto correct to the wrong word.

Now all of this is not to mention the security problems of apps. Each one is tracking me, where I go, what I do, the speed of my car, the food I eat, the news I read!

How did we get this way! What if you do not have a mobile phone with apps? Then half of your life can be obliterated. Who is behind this controlling and invasive world? Its the young apps developers who have no interest in the customer. They just want to be the next "smart ass" in delivering the more intrusive app!

So at some point we must revolt. Assume the customer does not have a mobile phone. Then what?

Apps are like cockroaches. They burrow in the walls, eat food, leave droppings. They serve limited useful purpose. And like cockroaches they will last forever.
