Oh, Joy. More Android Bullshit.

Right, so Google’s found one hundred and twenty vulnerabilities in Android. ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY. Like they weren’t expecting this, or something? Two of them – a couple of zero-days, naturally – are actively being exploited. Fantastic. Just *fantastic*.

Apparently, these flaws range from critical issues in the Media Framework (because why wouldn’t your media player be a security risk?) to problems in Qualcomm drivers (surprise, surprise). There’s also stuff in ARM holdings and even some in their own frameworks. Basically, if it exists on an Android phone, it’s probably broken.

Pixel owners get the updates *first*, because of course they do. Everyone else? Well, you get what you get. Good luck waiting for your carrier or manufacturer to bother pushing out a fix. You’re probably better off just buying a new phone every six months, honestly. It’ll be cheaper than paying someone to secure this garbage.

The article says it impacts phones from Google, Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo, OnePlus, and others. So yeah, pretty much everyone who isn’t smart enough to use something else is screwed.

Seriously, I swear these people *try* to make things insecure. It’s the only explanation.

  I once had to debug a system where someone decided it was a good idea to store passwords in plain text…in the logs. The logs! And they were surprised when things went south? Honestly, Android feels like that system, but on a global scale. Don’t even get me started on fragmentation.
