How can we tell if an app has GSF & Firebase spyware in it other
than to search the code using a FOSS Google Play Store client
or via an AppManager that looks through the code for you?
Here's how I (think I) know when an app has GSF spyware included:
<https://i.postimg.cc/Jh8fJ9C7/gsf01.jpg> Apps with gsf are reported
<https://i.postimg.cc/9fhXXxSx/gsf02.jpg> AppManager analyzes the code
<https://i.postimg.cc/T27PjJLw/gsf03.jpg> Notice linked-in gms code
<https://i.postimg.cc/wjJTpKWy/gsf04.jpg> Firebase crashlytics also
<https://i.postimg.cc/0jQyRb3P/gsf05.jpg> Signatures, keys & checksums
But is there another way to tell for sure?
