[GTALUG] ssh/terminal on Android phone

| Which SSH client do you use on your phone?

I use connectbot.

I shudder at the security implications of using an Android app, with
unknown provenance, for ssh.  After all, I'm giving it the keys to my
kingdom.  Connectbot is open source and used by many, so it is more
trustable than most.

Unfortunately it doesn't have file transfer capability.  For that I
use VX connectbot and cringe a bit.

Android culture seems to think privacy compromises are an implicit
part of the deal when you install an app.
