Those are such nice questions but the average person should not be concerned about such non-sense. Everybody has choices to buy any phone they want. If you are a criminal, do not buy a iPhone. However, most phones have GPS's and the cops can track calls. You can turn off your GPS anytime. Reward a company like Apple for inventing something new or go and buy just a plain phone that 89% of the population uses. Paying a fee to sell software could be a real money maker. If you want to give it away free....go right ahead...give it to Microsoft and let them put it on Vista.
