  • BlizzCon Controversy already over an App?

    Interesting article popped up to give Blizzard Activision another black eye since they use this for Blizzcon: https://theoutline.com/post/5628/how...=1&zi=ha44w3rd

    Here is a video that sums it up a little bit half way in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ix4T65NKxoQ



    So what can it do? According a lot if you look at https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...om.axs.android


    Contacts

    read your contacts

    Location

    approximate location (network-based)
    precise location (GPS and network-based)

    Camera

    take pictures and videos

    Wi-Fi connection information

    view Wi-Fi connections

    Other

    receive data from Internet
    view network connections
    pair with Bluetooth devices
    full network access
    prevent device from sleeping
    view network connections
    read battery statistics
    pair with Bluetooth devices
    access Bluetooth settings
    full network access
    run at startup
    control vibration
    prevent device from sleeping
    modify system settings
