From Slashdot, the Android phones from Google will also contain a kill switch, much like Apple’s iphones. From an original post at Technologizer, the kill switch being implimented is an overall good thing. Unlike Apple, Google has been upfront with the kill switches implementation, long before the ability to purchase.  “Google has a built-in “kill switch” to remotely disable applications that violate their developer agreement. ” Despite the fact that Google is being upfront, they have a long road in trying to get developers to come create software for the open-source Android.
