Taobao jolla tablet and os security
Once it was clear that I would get no tablet I decided to get a taobso tablet. This though might not be a good Idea.
Since no reputable company is behind the tablet can it be guaranteed that it can be used with e.g. internet banking? Without any spyware? For this reason will jolla ever ooen up their software store to taobai tablets?

Having read reviewjolla one more time and @tyler and @JSE answers I think this issue has basicly been answered. I'll however leave it open for afew days if someone with more insight into security of tablets from Taobao would like to comment or answer.

Using software from not known trusted sources, eg bootloader operating system, is a no no today. Like flash tools from not trusted service at eg jolla, ubuntu, fedora, when also proper checking at the users side is done, automatic as with os updates, or manually with tools like md5sum, is dangerous and can introfuce trojans and other malware.
