Actually, the android runtime in bb10 can be managed by BES - you can disable it.

It is by far the securest platform, I installed whatsapp (native BB10 release) the other day and it wanted to access my contacts, I disabled that "privilege" and could not use it ... WTF^10. Anybody who uses that poor excuse for messenger software surely entered email address and its password into facebook, when fb kindly asked to phish for contacts.

That was the one off, software mostly works even when you disable the odd privilege ... of course, some features will not work, but mst of the time, when you are not an idiot and do not disable vital features for the app, it just works.
