PLAY STORE WILL NO LONGER INSTALL THE FREE VERSION OF CMLD

[maxieds]

Unfortunately, a case of conscience has overwhelmed me. In my limited view, it is entirely hypocritical and irresponsible for me to continue to open my mouth on the one hand, and offer no action with its pair. In spite of the ~400 active users to boast on my software profile, and consistently excellent ratings of the application on their sites, I can no longer maintain something this important on that Google-based Droid installer platform in good faith.

Therefore, until further notice I am taking the free version of this application off of Play Store due to ethical concerns over the platform. I will not remove the paid version because I realize that several users have paid their hard earned money for the right to run it that way. Anyone who still wishes continue using this app should see the latest releases page and install a signed (just like it was on Play Store, sans Google re-packaging) binary of the application. Or better yet, learn to clone this repo, build from source, and install with developer options just like I do routinely in developing the application.

I do not tear things down and rip them apart to hack when I write my code. Hackers (as a whole bunch) are an opinionated group of passionate individuals who have a responsibility to be the first line of defense when something like this happens. Free Kevin from my high school era Screen Savers days does not even quite grip at the threat of what we are facing today. I sincerely hope that the rest of you all join in my spirit to do something to fight against this maligned bullshit that is being leveled at the so-called free world today. And, most importantly (realizing from having emailed with many of you about this app) as the only American citizen in this room: FUCK TRUMP!!!

A very concerning tidbit brought to my attention is that Trump is actively trying to hijack Bluetooth hardware on mobile phones. This seems like such an under-represented aspect of his intent and complex about the world. Please, please (please) tell me this man isn't flagrantly taunting me with his ability to supress an election for a reason. I hope something stops him from electronic world domination, and gives him an allegorical kick in the nuts. I am not a security person myself, per se, but feel free to use my foot (so to speak). 💩 🔥 🖕, 🙆‍♀️ 👒, 👢

I also want to clarify things with this commit message. The reason my intended expose of Trump's (scary) virus (thank you for the reinforcement, Miss Pelosi, no you totally said that first!) on Gmail servers is that I went back in time to the day of my "impeachment party" in Florida last year, and found a disturbing trend: The RNC is tracking individual users by unique key based on at least their viewing / participation in having to click through a YouTube AD circa the summer of 2019. This YouTube survey would have been unsolicited, and not targeted at anyone in particular.

This global quest for world domination on social media needs to stop. That the man is a twittering twat glosses over the evil he is capable of putting in place.

P.S.:

1. The US State Department wants to make anyone rich (and apparently grant them political asylum) that gives them evidence of conspiracy to intervene in the upcoming US election, and Play Store (hence Trump's toxic app) is available in most countries on earth. Here's an archived demonstration of point. In America (dude), we get very pissed off when the government owes me money. So I expect any CMLD users out of state (so to speak, again) to do the same!
2. If you miss my app (CMLD) being easy to install on Droid, please make me feel better in dropping my middle fingerous gaze at Google for exactly this sort of bad behavior.

I hope this works.

Update ...

I want to clarify intent. I am not insinuating, nor suggesting nor beckoning the hacker or security community to go after Trump's campaign efforts with pejorative (e.g., malicious) intent. Rather I am pointing out, documenting (in my own way), and imploring experts within their respective areas that can crack these encoded efforts by the current US administration to derail freedom, and suppress our democracy (worldwide) to do that which they already do -- and well. This is not an attack on the president, but rather an insistence that more people begin to recognize and find where else to pay attention to their mal-intent.

I fully expect that anyone who wishes to cash in on the US State Department's way of putting a bounty on unconditional proof that there is a real conspiracy, nay threat, for the current administration to interfere in the US electoral process will at minimum need to reverse engineer the bits on that app. That this can be interpreted as either 1) bait (reported to a .net site instead of state.gov, mind you); or 2) a well intentioned bounty on unacceptable conduct here, is completely conditioned on who "wins" the election in November of 2020 is ironic.

Biden and Harris made their first televised appearance on television, as streamed by the "fake news" as opposed to state sponsored media, while I was drafting this inspired addendum to my message a couple of days ago. The response from the active administration is shockingly appalling and inappropriate. Let's all punish this man for his misdeeds and make this country safe again by giving Nancy Pelosi the opportunity to throw him in a federal penitentiary for the rest of his life next administration. Please contribute what you can, and be greedy when you can in good faith.

Bump, and done.

--Maxie, OUT

I may have been the first good civilian to report Trump to the FBI for bad behavior on Twitter (it's gone now, right?)

[maxieds]

I am going to stop being foolish with this. Clearly, any would be hacker sorts that pick up on these points have seen it, or disregarded, are hard at work in their efforts to claim the State Department's $10M USD next year. I don't want to make an unnecessary mockery of what was a sincere point to start with by emphasizing that as a direct result of my inspired rants about the current state of politics in the US, my oh so intense desire to sit atop the great MS OSS firewall and give Google the finger, and otherwise demand that us hacker folk can make change happen quickly enough -- I received a threat stemming from a conspiracy by another Trump loving twittering twat to give me a COVID virus through the mail, with my ballot.

I have decided to be more rational and not necessarily penalize users for the faults of Google, the RNC, and the evil powers that be in their never ending quest to thwart democracy, suppress elections by gerrymandering, systemic racism, and other typical spawn this system has come to offer. Therefore, the app is now back in circulation on Play Store. I apologize for the temporary state of freedom downtime to you all. To make the point, I will instate the themes formerly only on the Paid app favor in the free version -- which means, that by purchasing the $4.99USD app, you are complimenting the developer's efforts to make the app shine and be useful in day-to-day operations with the Chameleon device.

If you all hackers let me down again, and there are serious bad things that happen with the election in November that should have been thwarted by attention to these, ahem, issues, you all will have to put up with my renewed sense of ire, and the usual wit of my pen then. Expect me not to be happy about that event, should it occur.
