[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 85179, post: 861190"] Well Android isolate apps and Chrome & Chromium browser have isolation too so a successful attack is less possible. Against ads & tracking using a DNS server which do that on server side is much better version then using a local app. Android 9+ can do that natively. Average users shouldn't trust on faulty "security" solutions like AV. Users with more knowledge (should) know what they need to do. But this are just my 2c ;) [/QUOTE]
