Not OP, but how much of a bitch is it to compile a ROM for a device which has the source available for(eg. Sony, LG Devices)?

If Pajeet can do it, why can't a /g/ent do it?

It's pretty convenient for remote controls, small file transfers, networks, serial connections, etc.

Then how am I supposed to use bluetooth headphones if I disable the fucking bluetooth?
>disable bluetooth because google niggers

>>62444588
It affects pretty much all major OSes, dumbass. Microsoft, Google, Apple, Linux. Doesn't matter.

>>62444685
pajeet ROMs are botnet, and you know it.

>>62445061
This is why I mentioned android fragmentation and the fact that 60% of smartphones will be unpatched, because Sony, LG, samshit and other nigger niggers don't support old devices.
And my Sony Z1C for example is not supported by sony since 2014.

>>62445066
Onus is on you to prove that. Shouldn't be hard considering Lineage is entirely open source.

>>62445093
Lack of support of Android devices is nothing new. Stop treating it like it is.

>>62445156
Where did I say it's something you, you google nigger?
I said it's yet another reason to not buy android subdevices.

I really don't care

How does it feel to be so wrong? What I'm saying is that lack of updates has been a problem for a LONG, LONG time. The fact that you think it matters any more now than it did a year ago is retarded.

I've never used blueshit.

>>62445061
Except iOS is only vulnerable for versions of 9 and below. These are EOL products and make <10% of the iDevices running iOS.
Meanwhile, for android...

Windows should have released an update already, IIRC.

>>62444588
>"nobody talks about it"

every time

I'm curious how can this be effective if bluetooth visibility times out?

Most who have bluetooth only have their phones bluetooth visible for like 30 seconds while they connect to devices for the 1st time.

Still I'm glad I didn't get an iPhone. This kind of problem won't be completely patched for years (see fappening).

>>62445774
From what I've read, the BT doesn't need to be visible, just on.

>>62445788
That doesn't make any sense. You can't connect to a unpaired device if it's not visible.

>Armis Labs said unlike regular cyber-attacks, a BlueBorne attack can target any vulnerable device that has bluetooth.

>It gets into devices from phones to printers, computers and smart TVs by exploiting a weakness in the bluetooth software.

>According to Armis Labs, any attack that exploits the vulnerability — of which none is currently known — could spread over the air.

>"You could be simply walking down the street [and] you walk past someone who is vulnerable and suddenly they are infected," Mr Miller said.

>He said as people pass each other by, the virus passes undetected over bluetooth and without permission.

>"As that keeps going on more and more people would become infected without even knowing it," Mr Miller said.

>>62446012
That still doesn't say whether bluetooth needs to be visible or not.

So is there an update for windows that I can download for this? I sure as hell am not turning on windows update for it.

>>62445903
You can if an exploit allows it.

>>62445053
>he use bluetooh headphones
you deserve it faggot

>>62447233
kill yourself you shitposting retard
You can't even make a valid point.

>>62445774
this exploit was already patched in iOS 10

>>62446546
uh you've got bigger things to worry about if you aren't updating windows, 99% of windows updates are security patches dumbass

>>62444588
We should just fucking outlaw C at this point.

>>62448905
>outlaw C
>outlaw a language

this is bait

Will the linux kernel have a patch for this or will I have to wait for bluetooth software to update?

>>62444601

>>62445156
Good consumer.

>>62444588
>reddit-technica
Anyway, it was posted before and yeah, it's really bad. Unless you can patch it, it's best to disable Bluetooth in public.

>>62444588
I was in an argument with a retard about what android offered to the linux.
his first and loudest argument was tye bluetooth stack.
Jokes on him.

no thanks. I'd rather not have a """smart""" device tracking my every move and activity. But you're right though, Google can go fuck themselves.

>>62453245

Which is why I have a dumb phone with the battery out. Only pop the battery in for emergency calls. What's wrong NSA cucks, can't find me :^)

>All iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices with iOS 9.3.5 and lower, and AppleTV devices with version 7.2.2 and lower are affected by the remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2017-14315). This vulnerability was already mitigated by Apple in iOS 10, so no new patch is needed to mitigate it. We recommend you upgrade to the latest iOS or tvOS available.

Apple's iOS prior to version 10 was also vulnerable.

Use wired headphones, cheaper, sound better and more secure.

Because the average /g/ users complains about indians cuz' memes but is too illiterate to do anything more complicated than a hello world.

>>62444588
Isn't BlueBorne a bug on all OS' that support bluetooth and have the hardware?

>>62444588
I only enable Bluetooth when I need to use it, which is once every never.

>>62445053
>Bluetooth headphones
There is no reason to use Bluetooth headphones instead of wired headphones.

>>62447354
His point is that Bluetooth headphones are shit, and if they're your only reason for using Bluetooth then you should stop using them and it posthaste
How are you this much of a brainlet?

meh.
i like my bluetooth earbuds.
the one and only downside is having to charge headphones. so stupid.
you can leave your phone on your desk and not worry about a cable between you and your phone.
hell, you can get up and walk 30ft and still not worry about anything.
magnetic earbuds.
automatic play/pause when joining or un-joining the earbuds

You're a dumbass. The bug affected all devices, not just Android.

>>62456261
Yes, but other devices will get patched, whereas most Android devices won't.

>>62456143
other than significantly improved comfort, you're right
