Security experts have urged Android users to delete five apps from their phones immediately over fears they are infected with malware.

Samsung Galaxy phones are particularly at risk from the nasty bug called Anatsa, which is a banking trojan.

It is capable of performing actions on a victim’s phone without them knowing, including taking money from their bank account.

The apps, which had been available on the Google Play Store, are:
- Phone Cleaner – File Explorer
- PDF Viewer – File Explorer
- PDF Reader – Viewer & Editor
- Phone Cleaner: File Explorer
- PDF Reader: File Manager

@phenomlab said in TikTok fined £12.7m for misusing children’s data:

Just another reason not to use TikTok. Zero privacy, Zero respect for privacy, and Zero controls in place.

The quote from this article says it all

TikTok should have known better. TikTok should have done better

They should have, but didn’t. Clearly the same distinct lack of core values as Facebook. Profit first, privacy… well, maybe.

Wow, that’s crazy! so glad I stayed away from it, rotten to the core.

@DownPW yeah, I seem to spend a large amount of my time trying to educate people that there’s no silver bullet when it comes to security.

Sorry to delay in responding, yes as i mentioned above, i had to remove my redis from docker and reinstall a new image with this command
docker run --name=redis -p 127.0.0.1:6379:6379 -d -t redis:alpine
and now when i test my ip and port on

Thanks for the help!
