#android safetycore

An update on Google's Android SafetyCore Program that Google auto installs and may actually keep re-installing.

The App blurs out parts of photos, and it collects the following data: call logs, contacts, location, your microphone, and possibly more. Though at present the app

“doesn’t provide client-side scanning used to report things to Google or anyone else. It provides on-device machine learning models usable by applications to classify content as being spam, scams, malware, etc. This allows apps to check content locally without sharing it with a service and mark it with warnings for users.”
