so users running Android 2.2.2 and up will not have been affected at all.

Haha that must mean users of "Super Sex Positions" actually got what they we're looking for?
And their phone got a root without them knowing, I wonder if they can run apps that need root support now

In a world of freedom, there's always a few bad eggs that ruin it for the rest of us. It's why there will never be a utopian society and why communism only sounds good on paper.

They're too busy pulling apps that they believe consumers shouldn't need.

How do know these bad eggs would exits in a utopian society when no one has ever lived in such society? These bad eggs could very well be the by-product of the present society we chose to live in.

Milktea has it absolutely right. Our society breeds the bad eggs. Also, as a hint: The USSR and China were not true socialism (or communism).

Like 21 crappy apps filled with malware that were present in a sanctioned app store after making it through a less than adequate QA? ;P

They only discovered them earlier this week? I only discovered scientific calculator but I still discovered it a month ago but no one would listen.
