Yes, how stupid of me for not explicitly explaining the context that everyone with basic reading comprehension can understand.
I’ll add the obvious context for everyone else who is new to the world and has issues parsing regular English sentences:
- The link and description of the post is the part at the top of the page.
- If you click the Title link it will take you to a web page (a collection of HTML documents and javascript) which contains a story.
- The story in the OP is about installing unverified apps.
- Unverified apps are installed directly from apks and not from the Play Store
- Scams often target elderly people with text messages or phone calls.
- Part of these scams involves getting access to the victim’s devices so that the scammer can leverage that access to obtain bank information and account control.
- Creating a system which prevents a scam victim from easily installing unverified apps will mitigate this attack vector.
