Not a Painting

I don’t have a Samsung, so that must be it. They have better image quality than mine.
I think my phone was hacked last night by hidden malware on apps, though. I uninstalled a bunch of apps and rebooted the device, but it still isn’t quite working properly (won’t even let me manually uninstall apps). Looks like tomorrow I’ll have to bite the bullet and buy a new one after all (I might get a new number while I’m at it). There’s stuff saved on this that I can’t easily transfer, so it’s a pain in the ass. I’m on Airplane mode with WiFi currently, but I’m worried now that a hacker might be watching what I do. He/she seemingly took over my keyboard and was typing nonsense, but some sentences made sense, like when they told me “you have yourself a nice weekend.” They also mentioned something about “Android development.”

Geez. Moral of the story, be very careful about what apps you install, and don’t click on any sketchy sites. My Anti-Virus and anti-malware software didn’t detect anything either.

Then again, I did accidentally drop the phone about an hour before all this happened, but it was working fine up until things suddenly got wonky and the screen started moving on its own, opening up random apps, and typing.
This seemed to stop after I uninstalled more apps and such.

I also discovered that the American government, Chinese government, and Japanese government (clearly stated), as well as servers from some other countries (including Sweden and Turkey), had installed ‘trusted certificate’ roots… which I believe means they were unashamedly spying on Android users and collecting personal information. 😐 There were lots of other sketchy-sounding rooted ‘trusted certificates’ too, so after googling their origin, I disabled the ones that didn’t sound necessary.

All very unsettling.
