There is an 80% chance that you are carrying a Linux kernel powered device in your pocket right now.
I think is a undisputed win.

Very doubtful they will abandon this project. This way they have full control over everything googleOS so they can spy more on what you do which is their endgame goal.

This is very thin ice. The kernel is far from "spying" a user, unless Google wants to track my syscalls.
