Yes, it seems that Android is designed to do this while the Apple isn’t.

Now that this article has been published, Android is going to easily duplicate the iphone behavior.

Too bad NSA...

It's already been posted. . . No need for another thread.

Flawed Android factory reset leaves crypto and login keys ripe for picking - LINK ONLY

plus an additional article with full details from CNN Money in the same thread.

I find it interesting that a lot of articles on this discount the threat to only 500 million when the article itself claims 630 million, and they haven't even tested Android 4.4 or 5.0 at all, which would extend the issue to over one billion devices, and Google, if it had found the issue and fixed it in those new versions, is required to report the issue as an existing vulnerability which they have not. Ergo, it is a reasonable conclusion that it has not been fixed!
