[Also, stalled in a draft]
Addressing the Android market's issues, such as unauthorized free device distribution and spyware risks from a January 2020 Ars Technica article, makes me think of the ‘dark side’ of the underprivileged population's use of mobile technology. These risks, including
identity theft and data breaches, affect those reliant on these devices for secure coversations.
I’d like to discuss how to safely implement these technologies in agriculture. Is a baseline security standard necessary for device or connection trust?
The article is available here:
Ars Technica Link.
Warmly,
