Good thing I'm rooted and away from this shit.
 
probably not. but a phone that is clearly not subsidized, it is immoral.
 
Unethical? Yes Illegal? No

And I hope atleast HTC would have provided an option to opt out of this "feature"
 

You authorize it when you start using Sense 7. A screen pops up with location access requests for Sense and all, udhar hai.
I saw it, said no, and removed the Sense Launcher.

How can you push ads into my personal space without authorisation?

You are using their software. Its not the other way around.

What the companies decides to do with their softwares depends upon them. Apple in US issues amber alerts incase any missing child is reported in that area. Apparently htc is using its software to peddle ads. Shitty move ..but not illegal
