Samsung makes up the vast majority of Android users and so many are stuck on version 4.3 with these problems. Therefore, Samsung brings down Android's reputation a great deal. Other manufactures seem to care more about updating the software so that their customers have safer devices.
As most users don't care about such things I don't think that Samsung is bringing down Android's reputation.
People don't care because ... they don't know better! Most ordinary people don't know about all the problems with openssl in the last 12 or so months. Most people don't know about all the password compromises the world has seen. It's a real pity that non-tech people will never understand the extent of some problems that are real; but that is no excuse for Samsung not getting us reasonable update to fix such problems. A.
