Regarding the apps, however, I'd argue that the PrivacyGuard functionality of ClockworkMod and so on can severely restrict their "spying" functionality as far as making it unusable.
Interesting, thanks. I've been hoping that Google will overhaul the permissions system for Android (most people won't install a fork) to make it more granular/at time of access.
