Hackers are using a fake Android app named ‘SafeChat’ to infect devices with spyware malware that steals call logs, texts, and GPS locations from phones.

The Android spyware is suspected to be a variant of “Coverlm,” which steals data from communication apps such as Telegram, Signal, WhatsApp, Viber, and Facebook Messenger.

    50 year olds today were in their 20s during the 1990s, when the internet was the wild west and what you could do with a computer was limited by what you knew about computers and how much time you had;

    I’m reasonably sure that today’s 50 year olds that had a computer in their teens and twenties is more likely to be more knowledgeable about computers and networks than the same age groups today.

    The internet has been sanitised and made much more rigid and user friendly now.
