Yeah we all know this “security feature” is to root out ReVanced and other mod users.
I’m about sick of Google’s invasive bullshit
I have a hard time believing that malware on android is that big of problem. Most people either use the play store or F-droid.

Honestly people like to point fingers at F-droid but in reality the play store is way more problematic.
Its much easier to ship malware with proprietary software

Think of the people who search for YouTube to MP3 downloaders.
The last bug I had was caused by Google’s own messaging app.
If you have access to beta version of Google messenger, two user accounts on the phone (one with access, one without), and you change SIM cards, then put your original back in, about half your contacts just turn into phone numbers not associated with the contact that is saved on the device
Maybe they should clean up shop first before pissing on how others work
I had the same bug recently but only for one person’s number. I had an old number saved alongside their current one. Deleting the old number fixed it for me.
They have not been doing this all along? Surely they have?
They’ve already been scanning for malicious apps via Google Play Protect. This new thing is an upgraded detection for Play Protect which has heuristics for detecting apps which do financial fraud. So this is kinda like a heuristics signature update for an AV and not a completely new feature as such.
