Gut, dass in diesem Fall funktioniert hat - das Risiko über andere wie FDroid etc. sich ne zuzuziehen bleibt. Hoffentlich reagieren diese Stores auch so schnell.

EFF & AV-Comparatives found Android’s built-in Play Protect detects only 53% of stalkerware - the lowest among 13 tested tools.

Malwarebytes, Bitdefender, ESET, and Kaspersky achieved detection rates above 94%.

Researchers warn that vague alerts and lack of secure notifications can leave victims unaware of hidden surveillance apps.

Ich hatte die Meldung gestern auch das erste (und zweite) Mal.

Bei #Aves und #SherpaTTS.
Interessant fand ich auch, dass die Meldung die #Apps nur als schädlich einstuft, ohne konkret zu benennen, was sie böses tun sollen.

Wo kann ich mich einer Klage anschließen, weil Google unter Android jetzt Apps aus freien App Stores in Play Protect unter "Schädliche Apps" aufführt und jede Installation mit einer Meldung "Schädliche App" blockiert (Drop-Down => Kleingedrucktes: "Trotzdem installieren")?
Und wo kann ich mich anschließen, sobald Google 2026 wie angekündigt die Installation von Apps aus freien App Stores blockiert?

#Google funds this #EU think tank to put out policy papers saying #DigitalMarketsAct will break their lovely #PlayProtect scare screens, making us all less safe and "it require[s] Google to allow developers to insert links inside their Play Store apps".

As I've always said in relation to the #DMA, let @fdroidorg compete on trustworthiness. I'd love to see this think thank include analysis malware rates of #CalyxOS with #FDroid and compare that to #GooglePlay #security

Rather than just scanning apps for malicious code when you download them, Android's Google Play Protect will keep looking for signs of suspicious app behavior even after they’re on your phone.

I disabled #PlayProtect two weeks ago.

Is there a way to keep this "feature" off without uninstalling the #PlayStore?

I installed #MercuryGram and it just made me mad.

Fundamentally, Telegram is aesthetically a nice app, but in trying to make people buy premium, it doesn't have Monet any more and let's be honest, #MaterialYou is the best thing about modern #MaterialDesign and because #Signal sucks so bad, it becomes normal just to lower your standards and before you know it, things that were homogenous, are no longer so. Anyway, MercuryGram made Telegram feel premium again with their Monet theme. Shout-out to them. Oddly though, #PlayProtect hates it.

#google just removed an app from my #android phone, which I manually installed more than a year ago. #playprotect is NOT active, because i've read about app removals by playprotect. Seems to happen, even if playprotect is not active. 🤔

Google and Apple provide data about the malware they catch in their app store review processes. Both of them talk about "sideloading" as a security risk. Notably, neither Apple nor Google provide data on how much malware comes from outside of their app stores. Nor do they provide data-based analysis of which is the bigger threat: malware that makes it into their app stores or from other channels. They have this data, they track installs and active apps plus there is #PlayProtect #XProtect etc 2/
