Default Re: The T-Mobile G1 gets hijacked!

I just wanted to calm people down. From what I have read it seems clear that the browser has been hijacked (I haven't researched into the problem enough to say if it was Google's or TMobile's fault). But as the article wisely states, the Android security system isolates the processes so they cannot access other data in the phone and that way the damage is minimized.

FWIW, even if it had access to BioWallet data they still would be completly safe due to the use of strong encryption techniques combined with biometric authentication (well, unless you have something that is interesting enough for the NSA )
