Re: iphone OS userspace apps run as root
Well, the deafening silence when one mentions mobile device security is a bit distressing. Only when there is a big, ugly and public exploit will there be a drive to retrofit security. Right now it's a few enterprise ITSEC people who are essentially voices in the desert.
In the meantime, the industry and users will continue on fat, dumb and happy with their cool new phones that they've loaded with sensitive information.
