Doesn’t matter, iOS or Samsung-Google, the outcome is the same.
the OEMs release updates to the carriers, and the carriers push the Android security updates, NOT SAMSUNG. Apple DOES however push the OS updates which cannot be stopped by the Bureau, only delayed a bit if the devices are in Apple DEP.
Samsung and the carriers are on the 30/90 day update cycle with Google, and SO ARE THE APP providers - they all get the code early.
It’s total BS, trust me. Even if the update killed a first-party app (one the bureau wrote) that DOES NOT affect the data from previously exchanged messages. It only disables the app, and *IF* that happened, the app authors will fix it in a matter of days.
Samsung devices have security code in them called ‘Knox’, and Knox updates have not broken ANY apps in the Google Play store in a LONG time. The QC cycle is too mature now.
BEsides, if a Samsung update had broken the Bureau’s messaging capability it would be in the news.
But all this is MOOT. It’s total BS. The data are in the cloud. Already. Period.
Fire them all. Them put them in prison.
No, I was earlier pointing out that it wasn’t an iPhone. Relax! Obviously that’s not the point. On all else, I agree with you.
I’m just narrowing the conversation down to what the FBI is reporting:
The update “broke” their app the day after the election, and no one knew it was broke, and no one fixed it until the day Mueller was appointed.
When one hears that plainly put, the total ridiculousness of the narrative lies exposed.
The data was deleted to prevent Congressional or third party observation and review. If someone doesn’t pay for that, there is no justice, especially in light of the fact that Imperial Mueller now moves on to his Torquemada-like examination and interview of the President—in order to “prove”—obstruction of justice!
We all should be plenty pissed off that this charade even continues! Pull the damn plug on Mueller.
What does BLM say? No justice, no peace?
