Hi all you Android fans and users. This article at Wired.com will tell you something about the privacy drain you don't know about. There are in article links to the study done by Carnegie computer labs,and you should be able to find a list of all the most popular and most downloaded apps that have been graded.

Also,I have discovered a new app in playstore that can help mitigate data losses. There's are now FIREWALL APPS for NON-ROOTED Android phones. The one with the least permissions is " Lostnet No-Root Firewall" the pro version is only 99 cents,and well worth the extra functions,like packet captures,and analysis. Tons of functions to block anything you want. But be careful not to break some system apps ability to assist you daily.

Well,have fun exploring,and while you are in playstore,why not download Firefox,because it has extensions just like desktop,and has many ad blockers available. (-:
