Looks like Android users are about to get a critical security patch. Hackers have been exploiting vulnerabilities to break into accounts—something the FBI's been shouting about for months now. Google finally acknowledged the issue and promised an update is rolling out soon. The scale? We're talking about a billion-dollar threat here. Let's hope this fix actually closes the door before more damage gets done. If you're holding any sensitive stuff on your phone, might want to keep an eye out for that update notification.

This kind of thing again? It should have been fixed a long time ago.

NGL, Google dragged its feet for way too long this time. They should have acted much earlier against a billion-level threat.
