Trump’s Android phone: a scandal waiting to happen

Posted by | January 29, 2017 11:30 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly

Podesta, shmesta – the real estate mogul’s refusal to give up his unsecure phone could yield a scandal tsunami:

Donald Trump refuses to give up his insecure Android-based smartphone even after becoming president. He continues to use his old Samsung Galaxy S3 to tweet from his @realDonaldTrump account.

The president, who on Jan. 4, called the Democratic National Committee careless with its security while refering to election rival Hillary Clinton’s emails being hacked, is himself quite vulnerable to hacking.

Hacking group Anonymous has repeatedly tweeted against Trump and has warned it will be targeting him.

The group on Friday attached a screenshot in a tweet explaining how Trump’s phone is vulnerable to hacking as the phone runs on Android 4.4 OS, which is out-of-date with existing security requirements. The tweet mentioned a software called Stagefright which could be used by anyone to hack into the phone.

Don’tcha just love modern technology? ‘Nuff said…

    Since it is a Samsung, maybe it will blow up in his pocket. I know he doesn’t have much in that area that anyone would worry about hurting, but we all know his “brain” is kept in his posterior and hopefully the explosion will give him severe (even more so) brain damage and will finally be ruled unqualified to hold office.

      When pumpkin dies, he will receive all the honors of a head of state and will be buried in Arlington National Cemetery.

      Have a nice day.

          People like pumpkin head who think they can change the world, always fail throughout history, because they have one thing standing in their way.

          Just about everybody else.

        well, I certainly hope they will dedicate a COWARD’s Monument to him if he does.

        Personally, I’d prefer he goes off radar somewhere over the North Pacific with endless rumors of him being held captive by DPRK.

        that way, all nations bordering on the Pacific could show their concerns by allowing their populations to take an open whizz in the Pacific from time to time.

        It would be a fitting tribute.

      hopefully he’ll be in trump signature self igniting clothing when that happens. there is no reason for the American people to have to hear his dying cowardly screams for hours on end –

      even if he did lose the popular vote by 3,000,000+!

        maybe the people would love to listen to the slime’s screams of agony and his drooling as he’s carted away.

    He’s a billionaire using an S3 with Kitkat. He can’t afford to upgrade?

    • nola878 January 29th, 2017 at 16:22

      Vlad probably won’t lend him the money.

    • mea_mark January 29th, 2017 at 18:01

      Learning how to use new phones is very hard and complicated for him.

    They will probably bury him with honors somewhere in Russia.

    • Suzanne McFly January 29th, 2017 at 18:01

      His tombstone will say “If only he had a brain”.

      • amersham1046 January 29th, 2017 at 18:35

        or ‘I’ve been fired’

    just another HISTORICAL FACT for the 2016 rigged elections:

    Clinton won the popular vote by almost 3,000,000 votes. This is approximately 3 times the TOTAL combined votes of the previous elections where the loser of the Popular vote was installed.

    from 1788 to 2000, there were 3 installed presidents who lost the Popular Vote.
    from 2000 to 2016, there were 2 installed presidents who lost the Popular Vote.

    1824 ~ J.Q. Adams (R-d) [led to the creation of the Democrat Party]
    1876 ~ R.B. Hayes (R)
    1888 ~ B. Harrison (R)
    2000 ~ G.W. Bush (R)
    2016 ~ d.j. trump (R)*

    *lost the popular vote by more than 3 times the numbers of all other installed presidents combined.

    5 of the 5 installed presidents were from the Republican Party.

    clearly, the Democrat Party IS the party of the people.
