The main thing attackers need root for is to hide a backdoor or activity away and make sure your device stays under their control forever or maybe to upgrade your device to avoid the exploits providers subject you to. As demonstarted by Windows most attacks aren't that sophisticated. Users must be given fine grained revokeable control of apps. What users care about and what needs securing is almost always under their default priviledges anyway. -- Kevin Chadwick <[email protected]> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Security Discussions" group.
