    Yep, many false positives while only blocking 1.5% of all malicious apps, plus installing Play Protect on phones to “block malware” from the Play Store.

    It’s like someone wrote a comedy based on the worst way to prevent malicious app installs.

    Which begs the question, what’s the real purpose of Play Protect? Protect your FROM Play Store installations? 😁

    (Yea, that 1.5% is a totally made up number, it’s as real as Google’s malware prevention and the protection provided by Play Protect).
