Google advertises their store has "Google Play Protect" which promises to ensure no malware in the apps you download from them. Of course Google is going to get the blame when they make promises like that.

- bathtub365 6y agoDo you really expect it to say “Google Play Protect is infallible”? It’s obviously pitched as anti-malware and the fact that it’s not working is an issue despite them not saying it’s perfect.
- bzb3 6y agoThe fact that it's failed to stop this particular attack does not mean this anti-malware solution is "not working".
- bathtub365 6y agoI'm not really sure what you're arguing. An anti-malware system letting through malware is definitely not working as intended and should be fixed.
- ship_it 6y agoExcept this isn't the first time happening; Google Store was fulled with malware forever. The techies will of course say it doesn't mean anti-malware solution, while greater masses will say it's deff an anti-virus of some sort by looking at it.
