    hi, last day my phone was hacked after installing app for guide for
    Pok�mon Go, I uninstalled that upp and changed my banking credentials immediately after this incident.

    I'm not seeing any current news on this topic.

    Government Is Snooping on Your Phone
    Many apps collect data that is then accessed by outside entities.
    Should you care? https://reason.com/2024/02/21/government-is-snooping-on-your-phone/
