Funny how you always hear about Android fragmentation (hard to avoid with so many vendors), but iOS is not exactly much better in the end for a company that controls everything from the hardware to the OS.
Not having to update your OS is not necessarily a virtue. Considering Apple provides updates for a good 5 years, I'd hardly consider it a problem to have to update every now and then.
This. THIS. I cannot believe the amount of people that completely and willingly needs to ignore the fact that the kernel will not receive CRITICAL updates. It's a pretty dirty game Google is playing by giving "security updates" all of the time while devices often can easily be rooted.
That’s a kernel level issue. A Play Store package update won’t fix it.
That’s not exactly a great spot for a user to be in.
What else are there which would affect users very hard?
Doesn’t matter if Bluetooth is connected to something. Doesn’t matter if someone tricks you into connecting to a specific evil device.
Is Bluetooth enabled? You’re vulnerable.
It’s BAD.
