They discovered that the malware can operate in a mode called ‘phantom’, which uses a hidden WebView-based embedded browser to load a target page for click-fraud and a JavaScript file. The script’s purpose is to automate actions on the ads shown on the loaded site.

I know viruses are bad and this exploit could probably be used for more nefarious purposes, but I’m having a hard time getting upset about it.
