Why? They're absolutely right. The article doesn't say anything about a root exploit or phishing either so were left wondering...
He's being condescending because he believes as a developer nothing is actually fully secure. If I spend 100 hours building and securing something, that's not going to stack up very favorably vs the 1,000's or even 1,000,000's of hours attackers and communities can spend trying to break my security layers.
Basically, he's a dick in how he answered the question, but the truth every software engineer learns, is that there is no fully secure system. There's always an angle/attack vector you didn't think of and secure.
Of course there are (or there can be) fully secure systems. The problems come when you assume something is.
Hey but that wouldn't make money to companies like google ot samsung.
Your smartphone is itself a security hole. It has 10+ sensors on it nowadays and who knows how many apps lying about their privacy promises.
Hey I was just trying to make a joke.. but looks like I didn't consider the wording too carefully.
They actual report does say it just displays a fake login page. It's just phishing.
