After living in free software world for so long, it does feel very ... I don't know ... "icky" being in the Android Market where all the free apps are either displaying ads, trying to sell you in-app purchases, or trying to upsell you to buy the full version. Oh, and asking for access to your location and contact list.
Easy response: since they're free, get the source code and disable any anti-features like that. Then use your freedom to redistribute them to anyone else, so they benefit from your improvements. Unless you mean apps that are *not* free, and are merely zero-cost proprietary software? -- \ “How wonderful that we have met with a paradox.
