Here's yet another reason to never trust the panic-inducing mainstream media for your tech news?

NBC News and the bullshit ‘ZOMG Sochi Olympics Android hack’ story
Your Android smartphone only installs malware if you’re being dumb (or do it on purpose) — not automatically, and not just because you’re in Russia.
