Your choice, but as I mentioned above in #20, it's surprising how a little seemingly innocent information can be used and exploited by sufficiently motivated hackers.

I would hate to see a fellow FReeper harmed, so I encourage you to take precautions, assuming your device's manufacturer comes out with a patch. If they don't because it's too old, I will hope for the best for you and it.

Oh I’m ready to retire it in a few weeks for a cheap Windows tablet, but I’ll try to limit my use until I can see if there is some patch (not expecting much).
