Pinging for your list. Google removing 300 Apps that have been on the Google Android Play Store for bad behavior and are also deleting them from customer’s devices. Malware hidden inside the devices that have been used in coordinated to create Distributed Denial of Service attacks on targeted systems.

If Android users suddenly notice an app missing from their collection, this may be the reason it’s no longer there.

They also removed the Gab app because it allows all to speak - even conservatives.

Interesting. Finally got my first smartphone earlier this month. Was told by AT&T not to download any apps from an untrusted site. Then was told to get a GMail account (I don't have one) in order to download from Google Play, which they claimed was safe.

Thankfully, I have no urge to download anything to my smartphone.

If they remove them from the store are they automatically uninstalled?

Geezum, what took them so long. Any 5 performer with a sniffer or access to transient data could spot these pathetic script punks.

Too bad the gargler focused on pushing their leftist ways, they could be honest brokers. Instead we have google trash to file with islam and leftist trash and it is a “A Smashing Indictment of Character” ...
