Here's something. if you find a keylogger in any app in the repo, I'll give you $50. I'm pretty sure any other platform is way more likely to attract spyware and keyloggers.

Deal?

Also, please check my background (profile), I'm not your average user with regards to security. Even MITM won't break SSL or TLS, considering that they can't have the private key of a certificate issued for mail.google.com, or whatever the domain is. It's the whole point of SSL and TLS, is that the only way for an attacker to trump your browser without showing any warning sign would be to have compromised your client with a self-signed root cert.

Don't sprout things which aren't true, please.
The likelihood of this happening on Maemo5, is indeed little,
and still it CAN happen, and there is no reason not to investigate, or check it.
There is even less of a reason to bash me for raising it, if you don't like the idea, or thing it's impossible, you can express you opinion politely, or remain silent at your corner of the world.

As for the application in extras-devel, it can alter an existing bookmark, to point to http://www . gmail . com, and insert a record in your hosts file.
You will not get a warning for a compromised certificate cause there won't be ANY certificate.
Just cause you have not thought of a way to achieve a fraud, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

I don't need to check your profile to know that you are not the only person in the world that knows something about something.
Open your ears. you might learn something new one day.

Now please go away.
