"Android 15: Enhanced Privacy Controls for Location Sharing"

Android 15 will introduce new security features to protect users from malicious "stingray" devices by warning them when their device's unique identifiers are accessed or when an insecure connection is attempted. These features aim to prevent unauthorized tracking and interception of text messages and phone calls by alerting users and providing options to review and adjust their cellular network security settings. The update builds on previous Android versions' efforts to disable unencrypted protocols and null ciphers, ultimately enhancing user privacy and data protection.
