| #DeleteFacebook never stood a chance, Chinese company Royole beats Samsung to the market with the first foldable phone and controversy is swirling at CES after Lori DiCarlo has its innovation award revoked. Here's your Daily Crunch for January 9, 2019. 1. Facebook is the new crapware Well Facebook, you did it again. Fresh off its latest privacy scandal, the troubled social media giant has inked a deal with Android to pre-install its app on an undisclosed number of phones and make the software permanent. This means you won't be able to delete Facebook from those phones. Thanks, Facebook. 
2. The world's first foldable phone is real Chinese company Royole has beaten Samsung to the market and has been showing off a foldable phone/tablet this week at CES.

Despite promises to stop, US cell carriers are still selling your real-time phone location data Last year a little-known company called LocationSmart came under fire after leaking location data from AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint users to shady customers. LocationSmart quickly buckled under public scrutiny and promised to stop selling user data, but few focused on another big player in the location tracking business: Zumigo. 7.
