*Quote:* Unlike its leading competitor, iOS, Android is about as open as a

traditional desktop OS. As such, piracy is no stranger here, and some

developers speculate that the situation is made worse by the fact that it

is in fact "open". We analyze that and other thoughts, and try to evaluate

whether or not closing Android would solve anything.
