Taint Droid-Realtime Privacy Monitoring


www.mwd.com

Train Droid has come up with a real time privacy monitoring for all the Android devices. This is all about securing the device users’ personal data. In fact, the outcome is a combined effort of Intel, Penn State University, and Duke University that monitors the private data that third party applications request from your Android phone, through using a scientific technique called “dynamic taint analysis”

"Google is aware of the issue and they are addressing it"?????

Didn't they become "aware" of the issue when they placed the analytic and tracking software on the phones? Or are they going to use the Bill Clinton defense and ask their customers to define "placed" and "spyware"???

Between this and the I-phone fiasco I am of a mind to believe that the government is complicit and had ordered tracking software to be included in the guise of adware.

Aware of it.... Pssshhhhh

In various posts i have often said and remarked about these bling bling phones and how open they are to intruders, but i guess i should make it clear that you do need to have physical access to the phone, but that is not a hard thing to do these days.

Q:
Hey can i please call my wife/husband/mom/dad so as they can pick me up as i have car trouble, here have a 50 for the use of your phone.

A:
Hey sure man.. no problem, here you go.

Conclusion:
Installation successful.

Remember, Humans are so predictable.

OK. Glad I read this through because from the thread title, I was visualizing a droid placed in a rather sensitive anatomical area...
