Title: Totalitarian spyware application installation. Post by: bluefirecorp_ on September 29, 2018, 05:13:15 PM https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/194353/police-forcing-me-to-install-jingwang-spyware-app-how-to-minimize-impact#comment385403_194353
That comment sparked insight into the actual problem suggested (if you read the full context). Kinda scary for a government to require you to install spyware on your device. I'm totally in favor of someone here in America writing a bypass for their spyware app for privacy of the citizens. Mass rebellion might work, I guess.

Post by: myohmy81 on September 30, 2018, 09:04:10 AM I think no one should be forced to use such spying technologies and make them self's as a puppet's of government. Mobile phones main purposes included keeping our personal content safe. If its just hampered by the government that means they are making the use of technology limited in the country.
I was also surprise to know that police are forcing people to install that app or else they will put some charges on the person which is totally a misuse of power.

It's an issue that people need to know. I think anyone that values privacy will agree with you. I figured with all those Chinese school children spamming the forums, they'd see this thread an offer their own insight. Title: Re: Totalitarian spyware application installation.
