[guardian-dev] Whats better than antivirus? Whitelisting!

Apparently McAfee is releasing some kernel level app whitelisting thing
for Android devices.  Has anyone heard anything about this yet?  It
seems like a really, really good idea, I only wish that McAfee weren't
the ones doing it.  What are the potential problems with something like
this, other than placing one's trust in McAfee?  Has anyone used it yet?
 Any thoughts on how difficult it would be to make an open source
version of this?
