Why do phone security updates include game downloads? If I wanted games I would download them. I need to see if there is a way to prevent this.

@NeuroticByNature If you want to get game downloads without adware and spyware get an iPhone.
That's f'd up.
@NeuroticByNature It was in a description I found when I was going through apps running on my phone.

@NeuroticByNature Samsung uses the Android OS source code which is free and written by Google. Google gives the android code away for free to any smart phone manufacturer so the only way to make money from the OS Is to load it with annoying adverts.

If you don’t want annoying adverts everytime you install a “security” update get an iPhone.

@SomeMichGuy Samsung wants your money anyway they can get it. If they have to harvest and sell your personal information to get that cash, they will.

Hmmm 🤔

Interesting
Game commercials are rude too, the way the download option pops up. Like wtf this is my computer phone etc. If I wanted to download something I would.
My last five updates have included at least three games I have had to uninstall.
