Then what were you claiming? Because I posted the worldwide stats and you called them misleading. Misleading who about what?

About the actual usage and activity of the devices in the wild. The network that does that is targeting western markets where the availability of devices that are vulnerable is dropping steeply - not fast enough, but still.

I've yet to also see a single worldwide USAGE statistic that would reflect that dashboard. Whatever Google is counting is not the users that actually download and use apps (and are thus vulnerable) - pretty much all stats I've ever seen (even on apps with millions of worldwide downloads) have significantly higher update rates. Hence - misleading.

anon1385 is a step ahead of you; s/he inferred it from your argument and is asking you to consider the implications thereof.

Your comments here are arguing that this isn't a problem. You called the stats dashboard "hugely misleading" with the implication that the problem is not as bad as it would suggest, but actually it shows that the problem is worse than the average western based HN developer realises (based on their day to day experience).
