  1. Part VI

    Look on Youtube and found a free site that generates an unlock code for my phone for free.

    Even installed #Linux #JailFire, a #Sandbox to run #Firefox in, as I thought the website might be a problem.
    (I'm such a #CodingGod. cough cough)

    Just about to hand over my #IMEI, phone number and location when some intelligence seeped in through one of the cracks and I thought "Hmmm, this information, should I be giving it to #GodKnowsWho?"

    The web speaks. Looks like I shouldn't.
    #IDTheft

  2. Well, that was a completely horrendous experience!
    My advice: never use #miui it is simply jam packed full of #corpware & #propsoft

    Seriously, looking through the required #permissions just to even #register your device requires a binding between your #IMEI & this #stockrom, also mobile number and email (+ address, DOB & banking details, if required!)

    Yes, this is without a doubt #xiaomi doing a #samsung & #google combined.
