Not when there is already a market harvesting data from stolen phones. I think you probably haven't considered the impact for the standard user around using email as a authentication authority point.
Its like a skeleton key to your personal data, and with that you can get access to financial services very quickly. Hence why a black market exists, and I garantanee there is already rooting kits out there designed to own that data in seconds.
BTW obfuscation is not a security measure, and IMO its shameful and irresponsible to perpetuate that myth.
- mentat 15y agoIf someone has root on your phone, they have your passwords. It doesn't matter how they're stored on the disk. Protecting a key from someone who has full access to storage and memory is very hard.
