You have an Android device that updates itself??? Or do you just mean individual apps?

Apps, sure--but I have 4 Android-based tablets here; one from Dell, two from Acer, and I forget the last one...running Android 2.1, 4.3, 4.4 and 6.0. None of them has ever got a single OS update, which means that things like Heartbleed (now long patched elsewhere) are still a problem, and are most likely not to be resolved, ever.

Yet my "dead", "unsupported" Windows phone still got updates earlier this month.

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
