The federal government makes my day

Feds probe mobile phone industry over the sad state of security updates | Ars Technica

Check this out:

"For years, critics have bemoaned the sad state of security updates available to hundreds of millions of owners of mobile devices running Google's Android operating system. Now, federal regulators are investigating whether Google, Apple, and the rest of the players in the mobile industry are doing everything they can to keep their customers safe."

Emphasis added, just so you can’t possibly miss the fact that after months of loudly yipping Apple keeps its customers too safe, they’re now worrying Apple doesn’t keep customers safe enough. Ditto Google and “the rest”—looking at you, Microsoft and that guy who built the Clintons’ mail server.

Don’t tell me we’re not having us some fun.
