alt Hacker NewsI agree that the issue is what you described -- an bloatware installed on a common handset manufactured by South Korean tech company. That should be the controversy.
Focusing on the factthe software is made by an Israeli company is manufacturing a controversy which is in fact extremely biased. We should be focusing on the decisions made by the South Korean manufacturer.
Why are you obfuscating the concern? Bloatware does not accurately describe remote control backdoor access.
Which country has backdoor control of the phones via this app?
