Is Android's nuclear meltdown inevitable?
Ping!

God as my witness, I think I'm going to get out of IT altogether and start an apple orchard. Selling fruit by the roadside has got to be less stress than this..........

The article is wrong, their percentages are way off.

They admit it later on in the article then start throwing around random estimates.

Still, the security issue is embarrassing for the Android, the nice thing is you can change your operating system entirely on an Android phone.

With an Android phone, you have control ultimately and have the power to make your phone as secure as you want. Of course, you have to have the skills and the patience to do it.
