I think that quote could also be interpreted as saying that Google simply didn't see it as a change that qualified for the program, not that they weren't planning on fixing it. But again, I could be entirely wrong; I have no exper

I definitely commend the author for his work, but I think that there might have been a slight misunderstanding here. In his last email, the author talks about how public disclosure would "force" Google to fix the vulnerability. Bu

Could you explain? Looking at the document you cited, I'm not sure what you mean. For example, the document says that Android would give "mobile operators and device manufacturers significant freedom and flexibility to design prod

Speak for yourself. I'd much rather pay $7.99 a month for a subscription that provides me streaming access to everything rather than $20-$30 buying new music every month.

Happy to see Panorama Education here, definitely a bright group :) Also refreshing to see that they are profitable, given that these days profitability is frequently, though not always, left out of the equation for young startups.

As far as I can tell, my title was shorter and still more accurate than the article's title. Really? Because I had no idea what the original title was referencing, whereas the new title gave an accurate summary.
