First I'm surprised Al Queda doesn't use a special OS or a virus to make phones explode on a plane. Second, it could be competitors who specifically target the Note 7 with a 0-day attack to harm Samsung's reputation.

All phones with a battery are a fire hazard if they get the wrong OS.

The battery itself has a controller to prevent overcharging. I very much doubt the OS can override that.

This is dangerously wrong.
