• AntiVirus App using Database of backlisted apps by Google ?

  This might be an interesting suggestion to the DivestOS team for Hypatia, their FOSS antivirus scanner. I never thought about this, but having this functionality would actually be really important to prevent the installation or usage of warned apps. Source: about 1 year ago
