Not thousands, *tens of millions*. Our estimate from mid-2013 was 32M such devices (detailed in an IMC paper last year; http://www.icir.org/mallman/pubs/SCRA13/). And, that roughly agrees with both the openresolverproject.org numbers and another (not public) study I know of. And, as if that isn't bad enough ... there is a 2010 IMC paper that puts the number at 15M. I.e., the instances of brokenness are getting worse---doubling in 3 years! UGH. allman
