> Lot's of adware can be equally sticky because it keeps on loading new crap on the system if you just miss it in one place. Tbh the worst disaster system I've seen usually involved adware, sure it's not a total data loss but I'd guess it's far more widespread than ransomware.

Important to note that you're talking on Windows here. On Android it can't do anything of the sort.

> And I'd consider any behavior, that's not approved by the user, as an offense against the user. After all, this stuff is taking up resources that otherwise wouldn't be used (traffic, memory, CPU cycles and as such battery)

Nasty advertising practices are already quite common in the mobile world, compare with the apps that do push ads, notifications for in app purchases, full screen ads that are hard to click off, etc.

> This stuff might, for now, be rather easy to uninstall but nobody can guarantee that won't change in the future and infected phones end up in a similar bad state like Windows systems with sticky adware infections.

Short of sandbox breakouts becoming rampant - which would surely get noticed quickly - it can be guaranteed this will never become a concern on Android or any similar platform.
