Submission + - Shopping app Temu is âoedangerous malware" (arstechnica.com) 1
Z00L00K writes: Temuâ"the Chinese shopping app that has rapidly grown so popular in the US that even Amazon is reportedly trying to copy itâ"is "dangerous malware" that's secretly monetizing a broad swath of unauthorized user data, Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin alleged in a lawsuit filed Tuesday.
Griffin cited research and media reports exposing Temu's allegedly nefarious design, which "purposely" allows Temu to "gain unrestricted access to a user's phone operating system, including, but not limited to, a user's camera, specific location, contacts, text messages, documents, and other applications."
