I'd actually like to see a list of real world security incidents that occured on EOL android devices. Not out of date browsers. (Chrome can still be updated) but devices no longer getting OS security updates.. something tells me it's very very rarely if ever an actual issue in real life.
- taway32r41 3y agoI'm not going to do a lot of research here but one thing I remember reading about was an uptick in Android Ransomware. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/blog/2020/10/08/sophisticated-new-android-malware-marks-the-latest-evolution-of-mobile-ransomware/ https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/blog/2020/10/08/sop... In the article it explains how Google and the ransomers are doing a cat and mouse thing. If your phone is not keeping up, that could definitely be an issue.
