Holy Crap...... Android Exploits.......

So I received the link to this article from a guy i work with, and this scared the living *&^% out of me. Basically any app that asks for "Internet permissions" on your HTC phone, can basically grab whatever it wants from the logging application that HTC included in their android phones.

immediately right after this, a co-worker responds with this link about Trojan'ed QR codes.Then someone added this link tot he email thread started, and .......

mobile security is still in its infancy, but Google and the Mobile device manufacturers do not need to take us back to the security levels of pre-2000.

A lock screen timing out, and you can circumvent the password? That is just a little short of ridiculous.
