Google staff can push arbitrary intents to my phone without my consent #465

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Be me.
2. Have a Cory Doctorow short story start playing without your consent.
3. Be peeved.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I'd expect at the very least a dialog to show up asking if I accept the intent. 
It stopped being funny the second time.

What version of the android, in Settings -> About phone -> Build number (
ex. FRFxx ) ? If less than FRF50 - see the FAQ.
GWK74

Is the phone using WiFi or mobile network when problem occurs ? If Wifi,
are you behind a firewall that blocks outgoing connections ?
Usually mobile network

Can you open "Gmail" application ? Do you see new messages without hitting
'refresh' ?

Yes.
Can you open "Talk" application ? Do you see incoming chats ?
I think so, don't really use Talk at all. Facebook and Gmail push seems to work 
though.
