Paid version on the Google Play Store

[paulaime]

Hi there,

I just stumbled upon this paid version of DNS66 on the Google Play Store, and wanted to know if it's a legitimate version, or just a rip-off someone uploaded to make a quick buck?

I've always used the version from F-Droid, so I was a bit curious.

Thanks!

• it's not from me
• it's generally not illegal to do this, the license allows uploading to the play store
• (assuming that um recipients of it get the source code)
• it does violate the play store terms of service (it's an ad blocker after all)

I sent a report to Google.

Unfortunately Google isn't taking any action on the developer even after we reported it. upon contacting the developer the developer is stubborn and refused to remove it from playstore and also claims that his app is better. I assume it's modded to steal data.

I should have known when I saw the same account offering apps with ads. This is the same reason I do click that stupid banner ads I see on YouTube offering to block ads.
