"If you have one"? What's the point of that insert?

If you have an Android phone, you'll need to update it asap too because Google just released a security update for a zero-day vulnerability.

I misread the title and thought it said "You Need to Update Your Phone [if you have one], Right now", which I found quite strange, then started reading the post and was like "Hey, but I have an Android, do you assume everyone has an iPhone now?"... So here I am anyway.

You've been around long enough to know that won't stop them. I recognize your user name from Reddit.
