And how exactly did attestation help there?

Securing apps from the user does not secure the user from malware.

Now you can't bundle malware deep within the system "ROM" unless you want to break SafetyNet's attestation. It's a big change in that aspect.

  • Custom ROMs tell you that this is not true at all.

    • Custom ROMs no longer pass SafetyNet attestation, which apps such as banking ones (or streaming service ones) check.
