Beware of this app! A literal spyware is installed into your Samsung A/M/F series device as a system app

Few months ago until now, many users in several social platforms reported finding an app called AppCloud installed in their OS as a system app. Reports say that this app shares your sensitive info, such as your IP Address, Device info (Model, Serial no. and IMEI), and much more. The app is developed by IronSource, An Israeli software company which is now owned by Unity in which Samsung decided to make a partnership deal with them, Yet no responses from Samsung towards those user reports. Not to mention that IronSource company has another old history with developing another malware called InstallCore for Windows PCs.
Users' concerns have recently been raised more since almost a week now as more users find out about AppCloud and finding out the app being installed in their devices without any context.

Google Announces: Aluminium OS, a ChromeOS successor

One of its core features is that it will be deeply integrated with Google's AI model, Gemini. It won’t be also limited to laptops; the roadmap of AluminiumOS development explicitly includes detachables, tablets, and ‘boxes’ (likely mini-PCs akin to the Chromebox or Mac Mini).

Also, current devices running ChromeOS won't be upgraded to AluminiumOS, Google will have to maintain ChromeOS alongside AluminiumOS until the new OS becomes ready to replace it completely. AluminiumOS is planned to be released in 2026, there's no exact details on when it will be exactly released in this year but let's see if it gets released before GTA 6 or not 💀🙏
