No, no, and have I mentioned no. Furthermore, fuck you.
I had this shit the other day. Legit laughed out loud.
That’s because THEY FOUND MALWARE IN A RELEASE i saw a post about it yesterday. Think the devs have fixed it now but BEWARE if you had sensitive info on your device.
Could be one of the fake ones. Need to get it from the drv’s git, not the websites claiming to be him.
SmartTube’s developer told me that the computer used to create the APKs for the project’s official GitHub page was compromised by malware. As a result, some official SmartTube releases were unintentionally released with malware.
The news post going around: https://www.aftvnews.com/smarttubes-official-apk-was-compromised-with-malware-what-you-should-do-if-you-use-it/
The new versions should be clean however:
Users who may have installed the malware-infected versions of the app are recommended to reset their devices and take additional steps to review their YouTube and Google account information. https://www.androidauthority.com/smarttube-malware-fix-3620773/
If you were logged into anything, probably best to change your password to be safe (and delete all sessions to unauth every device)!
Next time you see an alert like that, definitely research it before trying to work around it and install possibly infected software (i know there possibly wasn’t any news when the alert went up, but i’d way a day then look it up again before continuing).
So, the problem with VPNs is that the cheap ones / resellers have known IPs.
So if you use them you get lumped in with all the people using them maliciously.
If you run a site with any kind of desirable the content the crawlers and scripters hound you endlessly and eventually if you don’t want it to be your full time job you just end up banning the entire IP/ ASN that the malicious traffic is coming from.
It sucks and if anyone has any solutions I’m all ears.
first, the ips of all vpn providers are known, the problem with the cheap/free ones is that they spy on you.
instead of blocking ips use proof of work for those sus ips https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis
(it’s the anime girl that checks if you are a bot. :3)
it drives the cost of crawling at scale high up while being minor for individual, “legit” requests
all the cool kids are using it
