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.

It would be so very easy to slip a sneaky Android app into the marketplace.

I have to hand it to Apple, they do a much better job policing their apps.
