Project Zero is doing Apple a huge favor. Google isn’t a single organism; Project Zero isn’t taking away resources from the Android division. And it’s not like Project Zero doesn’t look for Android vulnerabilities, it’s just that iOS is a much more interesting target from a security standpoint because it’s widely considered to be actually secure (not to mention that people actually run the latest version of it).
I think Fuchsia can’t come fast enough for an opportunity to break backwards compatibility and catch up with the rest of the world on security.
(I also think that Google needs to put some more humans in the Play Store review process, but as we all know Google despises using humans when they can automate a process.)
- panpanna 7y agoIf we only consider security, Fuchsia is another horrible use of resources. How many Android issues are due to kernel bugs?? Of those, how many are due to Google using is own heavily modifed version of an outdated kernel? Agreed on humans, Google needs more humans and fewer robots.
