I blame automatic OTA, not the manufacturer. There should be rigorous virus scanning of each OTA before sent to the customer and even then it shouldn't be allowed to be automatically installed.
- milankragujevic 7y agoGoogle actually serves the OTA for most devices, meaning they can "see" and check for malware. The files are stored on and downloaded from their serves. Given the "rigorous" testing the apply to devices before they get Google Play certification, I assume they could revoke the certification remotely if malware is detected in an OTA, or even reject the OTA binary.
