I'm curious to know about how the world sees Ubuntu. I recently went to 
check my emails using the gmail app only to find myself logged out. I 
didn't think much of it and entered my details. It let me in but the 
result was an email being sent to me containing the following:

Hi Gareth,Your Google Account gareth.france@xxxxxxxxx was just used to 
sign in on Android.

So why does Google think Ubuntu is Android? Is this how the web as a 
whole sees our phones? Is there not a way to report back a Linux or Ubuntu?
