    I love how he continues to avoid answering questions and coming up with questions and poll that only allowed one to say android is bad. And he accused everyone else of being a fanboy.

    The poll is not about showing Android is bad. Many of you here have said that malware apps are same on all os as a % of total apps.
    I have asked many times why Android users are downloading more malware then others. Only need to search Android Malware on Google. No good reason given
    The poll will help to find the reason. This poll is not about Windows Phone or iPhone.


    Why would anyone will think this is a bad thing to do?

    You have told us the answer in numerous posts, and now you are asking the question?
    Can you explain how the poll will find the reason, not sure how a handful of people know the answer?

    Same as how a handful of people know everything about Android.
    Since a handful of people have made a point to say how malware apps are same on all os as a % of total apps. The poll help to find out what others think and the reason why Android users are downloading more malware then others.

    Why not ask the board guides?

    Why are you even feeding this troll. His information is incorrect and he has an agenda that is based on what? Trying to misinform people.

    A fair poll will include option such as Apple is not disclosing problems with malware and hacks as freely as android. Or such as Windows phone has much less apps and users and hence not a good playing ground for hackers to bother with.

    A poll containing 2 answers which is pretty much saying Android have more problems with hackers when most users doesn't believe it (as for the reason lots of people have stated before) is not exactly helpful is it?

    I am not sure why I am still feeding the troll despite telling myself not to..... but sometimes its quite fun!!!! one against the whole forum, and he still managed to dodge all the facts thrown at him that he doesn't like.

    The ignore function is a wonderful piece of kit.

    Look! Apple are introducing permissions in IOS6. Another brilliant and unique innovation never before seen on a mobile platform. I don't know where all their ideas come from.
