I’m not sure you’re understanding the argument: you cannot monitor closed source, therefore, you have at least as many eyes looking at my random crap on github as you do on the random crap some companies are doing.
And you didn’t understand what I said. While you can not monitor closed source at the code level bjt you definetly can monitor their behavior. Even the automatic threat protection from the playstore protect function is worth more than the measly amount of people looking through smaller projects codebases.
I hate Google with a passion, but with all their control over android devices, they are more than capable of scanning apps for malicious behaviour and automatically remove them. These few apps in the article are the 0.01% of malicious apps that their algorithm didn’t detect.
