Remarks

Flag for use with #toUri and #parseUri: allow parsing of unsafe information. In particular, the flags #FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION, #FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION, #FLAG_GRANT_PERSISTABLE_URI_PERMISSION, and #FLAG_GRANT_PREFIX_URI_PERMISSION flags can not be set, so that the generated Intent can not cause unexpected data access to happen.

If you do not trust the source of the URI being parsed, you should still do further processing to protect yourself from it. In particular, when using it to start an activity you should usually add in #CATEGORY_BROWSABLE to limit the activities that can handle it.
