Is it me, or is Pandora being awfully quiet on this topic. If they are discussing it, I'm not seeing it. As far as I can tell this thread is about 22 days old and people are still complaining about it. Does Pandora monitor it's members feedback, or did they create this space so we wouldn't complain elsewhere, like every social media outlet available? Now, I'm not a premium subscriber and in most situations, I wouldn't feel justified in **ahem** about the majority of issues that comes with a free app. However, when an app has the ability to take over my phone and launch itself whenever it likes, I have to ask myself; what else is it capable of doing on my phone? Is my personal information compromised? I'm not saying anyone should do this, but If I were a premium subscriber and this is how Pandora treats it's paying customers, I would personally cancel my membership until they at least fix it, offer an apology, and reassure me somehow that my data hasn't been breached. I have already warned all me friends and family members of the situation and about this thread. There is only one thing that these companies can hear and that is the sound of their revenue being flushed down the toilet. I can almost guarantee that they will find a fix when their membership starts dropping off. Again, I'm not saying that everyone should cancel all memberships, or go to every social media outlet and let the world know, or tell every friend and family member about this situation just to get Pandora to do the right thing. I'm just saying that's what I am going to do.

I followed all the advice options, but Pandora is still launching without my permission. I am not a premium member, so I followed Srzvb and deleted the app. Has Pandora become a virus like a Trojan Horse? I don't know, but I'm pretty sure apps should not just launch themselves, especially when all permissions and data have been removed. Deleting a rogue app seems like the only logical solution at the moment.
