Even android & apple phone is secure, i'm sure both of them still send their user data to government Roll Eyes

Logically , same goes for Google , Facebook ,Twitter , and every other social media . It's just bullshit how they are afraid of the goverment or more afraid they shutdown their business .

Androids are te most vulnerable for all kinds of malware. It's a risk, but iPhones are not completely secure either.

As of now the English of op is "note" correct. I know that android phones are not secure unless you take some safety measures. Never install any app if it is not authorized from google play store or it has not huge popularity. After reading the article I can say one thing and it is the fact that google will always try to protect android users and they have already published patches for android phones.

This is quite scary: "Researchers have found a vulnerability in Android devices that allows hackers to access a device remotely without
the owner ever knowing it was compromised. The flaw affects roughly 95 percent of Android devices running operating system version
2.2 to 5.1"
