We received a Phantip this evening about some growing concerns around Mobage, a mobile gaming publisher in the Android Market, who’s games have mysteriously been asking for super user permissions on devices that are rooted. Understandably, there’s cause for alarm given root permissions are typically used for gaining access to features — whether legit or malicious — on an Android device. Just imagine you fire up a casual game of Pocket Frogs and all of a sudden you’re prompted for SU permissions. That’s enough to make anyone paranoid.
