For those who blindly installed this before doing your homework. You deserved this. Now you dig yourself out.

Unfortunately, threads in the Maemo area that scream like that are usually lying, in my experience. By exaggerating hysterically, they condition users to ignore them. This makes it difficult to issue real warnings that people can believe.
