Task Manager For WP8?

[tgp]

Shabby apps? Welcome to the 21st century. It doesn't matter what platform you're on, you'll have that. But at least on Windows Phone the apps are tested before they're published. Can't say that for Google. Microsoft has made security one of their highest priorities.

I believe you, being a developer and all. I use all 3 platforms, and thus I use apps from WP's Store, Play Store, and App Store. I appreciate that I can trust the WP apps to be safe. I will say though that a higher percentage of them seem to be useless. I suppose that's mostly because of the lack of API's though. I've never come across a malicious app in any of the 3 platforms. I know it does happen, but the probability is negligible on any of the 3 platforms. The only place I read about malicious apps on Android is either here on WPCentral or the AV developers such as Bitdefender.

WP is protected right now by low market share. While it is certainly inherently safe, it is also exploitable. Windows is supposedly in theory now more protected than Apple's OS, and yet virtually all malware in desktops is on Windows. Believe me, I make a living cleaning them up (among other things)!

WTF HOW MANY MEMBERS OF THIS COMMUNITY WORK FOR MICROSOFT(the phone works pretty damn good ands easy to learn after initial macdroid shock so cudos on user experiance)
ASSUMING THE N.S.A. ISNT IN THE P.R. BIZ(gooogle does whatever they ask just please dont crash our servers again like u did in china. Mac had Jobs fighting for our interest but probly gave up hard ware back door like a pron star. and now i got little hope for thier modest market share crumbling with thier exceptional products into bottom line junkies waiting for enron fix. maybe start by firing anybody that cares followed by everybody who knows what their doing.)
ASSUMING AN AGENCY THAT COLLECTS M.I.T. GRADS WITH VIGOR IS STUPID IS A MISTAKE.

THANK U FOR FORGIVING MY RANTS I'LL GET ON TOPIC. HOPEFULLY WITH INPUT THAT KEEPS THIS THREAD IN HEALTHY DISERTATION AND INTELEGENT CONSIDERATION. i am of the oppinion that open source is most conducive to the interests of users. it has its problems especially for share holders but with proper direction it has lucarative or philanthropic potential unlike other models. but most importantly it suits my personality as a tinkerer and a conspiracy thoerist as well. not every one cares to destroy xp operaating systems like a kid smashing round fsystem files or kernal process with reckless abbandon. admittedly once 7 and 8 hit the seen i had gotten so good at it that i was breaking things that couldnt be fixed by tedious reloading of OS and programs and this was a problem. curiosity will get the better of me and unbootable devices will be left in my wake again but i'll learn what i can the easy way until i can afford foolishness.
so is my personal vendetta against thing i havent figured out yet relavant to the question. no the 5-10% of us with this compulsion make a minute market and we'd be better off if we didnt have to buy the newest phone...and instead just wanted to camp in front of istore so we could see everyones envy. so nost would preffer the hassle free fredom of totally magical devices with only few magicians who actually know. but wait evry good fairytale hase evil sorceror or wicked witch and this is not just a side effect of makebelieve in real life the disgruntled employee or madscientist like me that figures it into greed or just the old hacker showing off to his forum budies online(not to mention insecurity salesmen)
what about the apps thatll never exist on WP becuase MS cant afford a billion employees to sit around brainstorming. microsoft is one of the most attacked , most villafied, worst security track record and most importantly the ones with the most stake in saying its ALL GOODmake sure u install this useless half fix update and maye change ur password just incase oh and by the way put all ur bank accounts, biz secrets ,friends and family , email accounts and identity in this big brother wet dream and just trust us. we been arround since 1995, practicaly dinasours , .

so maybe the transparency model, with everyone able to take a whack at it not just exceptionally well informed criminals of the corp., gov., or black hat. the smartest contributr the secerity continiously tested is the by far the strongest. the apps built through entrapraneral good wiill by faar the best while a glitch or 3 the price of creativity applied properly by users for users. bill gates wouldnt be retired giving out billions if they said no no we cant explain hihow this mouse thing works its a company secret and even though we aint even trying to use it we plan on protecting intellectual property.

my final arguement for my selfish addicted to screwin with stuff is the main point of the device is the internet and the avenues of comunication which are made possable by the anarchy inherent in www and the social benifits reaped. what if your isp said this is the only way to use this nifty thing dont ask how it works or why it only communicates with our affiliates in merchandising and content which is approved by said merchandisers. i'm pretty sure no one would be sleeping in front of istore to access the home shopping network and its a telephone too bonus! when you attack the idea of user owned user administered user interface you attack the net, basic human freedom constituted or not, and general good sales practices (if i buy it i own it if i infringe its only a crime to sell it, and if i want to play target practice with it well i paid for it. not likely i buy a car that only makes left turns unless u do so with the wheel turned all the way to the right so why a phone with out a universally accepted nessecity like "task manager"?????????invented by same dill weeds who now say no no we dont need that program it predates the internet thats like prehistoric
