And why is there a constant need to feed this fear? If I get a weird text message, I ignore it and delete it. "Security measures" that one takes when browsing the web on a computer should apply for cell phones! If you get a pop up saying "click here to jailbreak now" or "click here to get free i-p-a-d" or "click to see my naughty pictures" or "click here to increase your manhood," etc. of COURSE that's fake and should be closed/ignored! If you download apps for your cell phone, then read the reviews! Try to determine if it's a trusted source if possible! Taking these safety precautions under ANY device will make you 99.9% malware proof! Why is this posted on Slashdot? This is the kind of content that the brainless general media would repost over and over again! Not a technology-savvy site!
