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.

@SomeMichGuy it is.

@NeuroticByNature Games have been implicated in security before.

Which manufacturer?

@SomeMichGuy samsung

@NeuroticByNature Oh no...
Glad I turned off auto updates.

Samsung supposedly spies on us independently, too

@SomeMichGuy they all do.

@NeuroticByNature Samsung has (or had) an app they included in bloatware which apparently copies everything...

@SomeMichGuy how nice

@SomeMichGuy then I guess everyone here is implicated.

@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.
