That's the user's responsibility, not Aptoide's.

That's the user's responsibility, not Aptoide's.
- ionised 8y agoSounds like heroin dealer logic.
- icebraining 8y agoWill Google pay me damages if they let someone distribute malware on the Play Store, as has happened before? As far as I know, they won't, so how is Aptoide any worse?
- lstodd 8y agoStill true, heroin or not.
- SmellyGeekBoy 8y agoIs there a hard drug equivalent of Godwin's law?
- Markoff 8y agoyou are right, we should ban Chrome and Google search for providing access to pirated apps
- ionised 8y agoThat wasn't the point I was making. My point is that saying it's all the consumers responsibility is a highly one-sided argument in favour of the vendor/service provider. The amount of work a person would have to do to research every facet of every product they buy is insurmountable. There is no possible way for them to know everything about a product they are thinking of buying or using. Expecting the average user to know which apps on any given app store are ridden with malware is a mighty tall order. The customer will always have some level of ignorance about the product, so some measure of consumer protection is required. It's unrealistic.
- Markoff 8y agodefault aptoide repo has only free and verified apps, blaming them of providing malware it's stupid on par with blaming Chrome or Google search
