The true snake oil is to pave the way for malware to have pleasant journey. I have not said it will prevent the installation.

In contrary to Linux, there is plenty of Android malware in the wild, and no brain of an ordinary user can distinguish seed and weed. Most of them come from official repositories. -- Libor Striz aka Poutnik ( a pilgrim/wanderer/wayfarer) "Humour is the only effective weapon against stupidity."
