It looks like they are doing it after app install with a malicious patch. This patch asks for SMS and accessibility access to gain privileges necessary to get into the banking apps. I haven't thoroughly read it but just looking at the attack chain that's what I gleaned.
Ugh, TIL zscaler actually does more than just send my PII to the USA without my consent.
As an Android developer that comment makes me sad. Then I remind myself that Lemmy is full of people who migrated from Reddit.
Dude, do you not want people on this platform? Reddit migrants come with baggage yes but I'd rather that than the husk that was Lemmy before.
I'm not gonna scream back at you,.... I'm just going to walk back.... very...... very..... slowly.....errrrrrrr
We each have our specialties, and it would be unreasonable to ask that everyone share yours.
Hey don't pretend that you didn't migrate as well.
As a curious Android user this comment is useless to me
