Was ist DAS denn bitte für eine neue Art des User-Shamings bei #chrome

MEINE Uhrzeit wird automatisch synchronisiert und ist perfekt in Ordnung.

Newly Registered Domains Distributing SpyNote Malware

Cybercriminals are employing deceptive websites on newly registered domains to distribute AndroidOS SpyNote malware. These sites imitate the Google Chrome install page on the Google Play Store, tricking users into downloading SpyNote, a powerful Android remote access trojan. SpyNote is used for surveillance, data exfiltration, and remote control of infected devices. The investigation uncovered multiple domains, IP addresses, and APK files associated with this campaign. The malware utilizes various C2 endpoints for communication and data exfiltration, with functions designed to retrieve and manipulate device information, contacts, SMS, and applications.

It's amazing how impaired functions on our mobile platforms are compared to the more powerful versions on a (Linux or other) desktop.

I'd go as far as saying that the app vendors intentionally compromise functionality with malicious intent.

Maybe we need a new movement against that?

(Looking at you, #Google #Chrome.)
