Google has already inserted some of the NSA’s programming in Android OS
-
“All Android code and contributors are publicly available for review at source.android.com,”
Reminds me of time when a prosecutor subpoenaed for 1 particular document (a single page) and the defendant dumped a 24x24 foot storage room completely filled with boxes of random documents on them.
"Its in there somewhere. We complied with the info request"
-
I would assume and hope there are concerned programmers which are involved with the Android source code will attempt to hunt down the NSA contributor. They should be highly MOTIVATED in seeing what modified code Google approved to be merged back into the branch and bring some light to the subject for viewers.
-
The purpose of code is often obscured like pork in an appropriations bill…

I've looked a bit around the web and some are saying they where security improvements to App Sandboxing …....
I'm sure everyone is at ease now ......
But wait ..... If I was a trader of the American people working for the NSA installing mobile remote software without users consent, I would want to make sure my remote software doesn't go Snowden on me :-X
-
Android should advertise this as a feature. "Application Sand-boxing by NSA - In God we trust, all others we monitor"
It could have some serious good uses for customers.Forgot your password? We have it.
Lost some email? We have a copy.
Forgot what you were doing on the night of the 12th of Oct. two years ago at 6:27pm exactly? We got that.Anything you need, we got your back.
