In the case of privacy, hackers who protect Joe Average from snoops are heroes and will be more so. It's already happening: e.g. a simple hack prevents Google tracking your movement because you accidentally confirmed you're OK with this default behavior.
was under the impression you meant forks like cyanogen and others stemming from Android Open which are not done (usually) by the person loading the version onto his phone. As long as unlocking a phone during contract time is put aside, I have nothing on the radar which would make a fork of android (from creating and installing POV both) illicit - IANAL of course...
