That Avast post-mortem made me smile. I think they did a great job, not only explaining in clear language what happened, how users can help with reporting similar cases, and the final shout-out to TextSecure is the cherry on top.
On the other hand, TextSecure's blog post starts and ends with a "Avast is evil and sucks" vibe (in the original pre-update post). It's understandable, they're a starup and probably panicked a little. Still, if you leave the post mid-read you get a bad image of Avast.
