Technology@lemmy.world•[Malwarebytes Blog] Android banking trojans: How they steal passwords and drain bank accountsEnglish
3·2 years agoYeah, the app data are separated and inaccessible, unless specified by the developer. Accessibility service is a separate permission, and should almost never be asked or granted, where as file/photo accesses are more common.

Technology@lemmy.world•[Malwarebytes Blog] Android banking trojans: How they steal passwords and drain bank accountsEnglish
11·2 years agoI agree with you. The article give a good warning about downloading applications in general, but hand-wave how they escalated from “file/photo” access to capturing your data. The recent Anatsa malware’s details seem to imply accessibility service. This is a Thread Fabric article about Anatsa malware: https://www.threatfabric.com/blogs/anatsa-trojan-returns-targeting-europe-and-expanding-its-reach

Technology@lemmy.world•MIT Researcher Creates Mind-Controlled Internet Search HeadsetEnglish
5·2 years agoFrom the project’s page:
The wearable system captures peripheral neural signals when internal speech articulators are volitionally and neurologically activated, during a user’s internal articulation of words.
It doesn’t capture the central signal, but peripheral, most likely from the nerves running around your face and your neck used to produce speech.

Technology@lemmy.world•Google has replaced the Google Assistant app on Android with Gemini by defaultEnglish
1·2 years agoThe article claims that the default assistant for a new phone is Gemini, but it seems people who responded here haven’t seen it. I already have the option to switch to Gemini, which I haven’t.

4·2 years agoGoogle assistant “app”: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.googleassistant&hl=en&gl=US
I think once it’s rolled out in your region, the assistant will pester you to switch to Gemini.
There is no Gemini app of any kind for me either.

Technology@lemmy.world•Google has replaced the Google Assistant app on Android with Gemini by defaultEnglish
9·2 years agoIt looks like you can switch the assistant to the old one, and then turn that one off.
But just like Microsoft, Google is going to use this technology everywhere. If in the future (or now, if it is already available to you), you use features to describe images, summarize data, create texts, you probably will be using some form of Gemini.

Technology@lemmy.world•Two Wi-Fi flaws expose Android, Linux devices to attacksEnglish
1·2 years agoThe CVE-2023-52160, which applies to Android/linux/ChromeOS devices connecting to WPA2/WPA3 Enterprise, allows an attacker to fool the user to connect to a malicious SSID and intercept the traffic. So unencrypted traffic can be compromised. So, their listing of sensitive data, BEC, and password theft sound scary but probably affects very few services that don’t encrypt the data.
