android download manager is insecure

[nutpantz]

Download manager is insecure. Any app can abuse internet access by using download manager. https://developer.android.com/privacy-and-security/risks/unsafe-download-manager

Please support 3rd party download managers , even links for Firefox or app downloading.

Download manager will not work if Google spyware is blocked on many devices (IE Google apps like sounds, MTP host, provides.Media are bundled with download manager on Google devices So power used cannot allow one without allowing all access)

Download manager also will not work on many devices if captive portal controller is blocked or disabled when someone does not want their device to connect to Google every time

And worse of all the Android download manager NEVER reports ANY error to the user.

Please stop using the Android download manager it is badly written, badly implemented, dangerous software
