    @floofloof “TapTrap works even on the latest Android version, Android 16. We reported this issue to Google and major browser vendors in 2024. Browsers have fixed the issue as of July 2025, but Android itself remains vulnerable (see the disclosure timeline for details).”

    JFC, Google

      It then mentions that the underlying issue was independently reported to Google by another researcher in early 2023. So they have had more than two years.

        For some single-person or even small group project, I can understand not having time to deal with something. At the point that it is a large, commercial entity and running a lot of the world’s devices, there should be legal implications for such negligence.

        With that kind of timeline, maybe its a feature and not a bug. Just not a feature users want or need.
