is data still being collected ? - Security Discussion

@jcase , found this study on android vulnerabilities ( http://androidvulnerabilities.org/by/version/ ) and was wondering if you knew if data was still being collected ?
OR , should i be asking on the site itself. have DL'd the "device anayzer" and if data is still being collected ; how long should i let this run and then who to submit the data to ?
thank you for any advice/direction.

New Place to Upload Your Files

Hey guys (and gals)
I made an Upload file manager for us here at XDA-Developers.
For those of you who hate rapidshare or megaupload like I do, I'm donating some of my 3terrabyte bandwidth to you all. No pop-ups or advertising either..
You are able to Upload almost anything that you would like. (Roms, images, cab files...ect)
Maximum of 100MB (if you need more, please send me an email or PM)
Very easy to use and navigate
I will support hot-linking (only from XDA-Developers)
All phones listed
Uploader does NOT have a progress bar during upload, just be patient.
To get started :
Follow this link
http://envmyz.com/xda
Read the rules and conditions
Click on Shares near the top.
Select your phone.
List will be displayed, from here you can upload, sort, view, and display file information.
Clicking on the file will display file infornation on the side bar, you can right click copy download link to paste it into your post if you would like.
I started some files in the Wizard section.
Hope this goes over well.
email is [email protected] if you have any questions. Enoy
*Moderators - If you want to make this a sticky, feel free too. Post it in other forums as well.
I just read your rules and it made me laugh.
Code:
No files with illegal content, for example pornography, child pornography, racist material and/or unauthorized copies of copyrighted material. This statement of categories is not the completed list.
All of the OS version violate this first rule. So, are you saying that you only want programs and such uploaded, no OS's. Thats the reason that XDA had to stop hosting these also.
They are there to cover my ass, feel free to upload anything you want
even pornography( smile ) ?

Maybe because of the unfreezing process you have no inner monologue
As many have learned, there are no CYA procedures that will get you away from M$ lawyers. You are taking on a big thing here. Good luck if you continue to allow this.
maybe you can create some folder for us
like
ROM, OEM PACK, Programs
btw! very cool site!!
indeed, it could prevent confusion - i uploaded small oempack with clear name , though... but it may be not rule for others...
thanks for that place.
---------
upd: erm.. file WF2.6 in wizard section may be ROM, that i made - Wayfarer 2.6 final...i don't know who uploaded it there, i did not...I will UL readme soon, if i may..
very nice interface.....
excellent!!!
thanks
For some reason, adding sub-directories cant be done, only new shares can be added. So untill I can figure out how to do sub-directories.. the folders are staying as they are.

What application are you using? Ill help you figure it out. Just send me a pm with the name of the script
Just called Ajax File Browser (AFB) - search for that in google.
Looked like my server was having some problems, but the techs worked it out. Site is running faster than ever.
*Any mods wanna sticky this?
Site went through a server move, XDA-uploads is back up.

Obviously you just didnt realise what you just typed.
i'm sure you know there are tons of sites already doing this.. rating "software" and recommending software.. and no need of such waisted threads.
here's a link to begin your quest for recommended software.
www.download.com <- filter to mobile software (top rated, popular) .. ofcourse there are more sites on the net that does this better.
hey
lol. i can assure you i am aware of what i type!
my intentions were to eventually setup a CAB file repository for MS Smartphones here on xda-devs which can be accessed via our smartphones over wifi! i am working on compiling a list as we speak however i am having trouble finding some good freeware apps and will end up having to post 'trial' versions

Keep your room padlocked, your screen locked, stay away from crappy apps/pirated apps, and make sure you didn't do anything stupid with security. Reflash and wipe all data, unless you have been logging things right along. Seriously, I doubt it was an external hacker unless you were not following 1 of the rules above and invited him in. The basic functions of Android run on the Linux kernel with limited services listening-and none behind CGNAT on your cell carrier and NAT on most routers(as Android only connects via wireless). The UI is basically a Java interpreter known as the Dalvik VM, with each app having isolated permissions, unless you carelessly grant one of the above things root access, which should be controlled by a superuser app. I think your hack was internal, perpetrated by something you let on your phone or near your phone. As far as finding him, maybe IP logs if you have any, otherwise, fully wipe, follow the above rules, and move on. Sorry I don't have better news but maybe this is good news for you that you likely weren't hacked by a mystery bogeyman.
