00:00Are your favorite apps secretly spying on you?

00:02Cybersecurity experts just dropped a shocking report,

00:05and Android users need to pay attention.

00:08An investigation by which?

00:10And HexiaSec looked into 20 popular apps,

00:12like WhatsApp, TikTok, Facebook, and Amazon,

00:16and what they found is disturbing.

00:18Every single one of these apps requested risky permissions,

00:21many of them unnecessary.

00:23The worst offender, Xiaomi Home,

00:26asking for 90, asking for 91 permissions,

00:29including access to your mic and location.

00:31Samsung's SmartThings wasn't far behind with 82 permissions.

00:35Facebook wanted 69.

00:37Even WhatsApp asked for 66.

00:40TikTok was caught requesting the ability to record audio

00:43and view your files.

00:44Temu aggressively pushed marketing emails.

00:47And 16 of the 20 apps tried to create pop-ups over other apps,

00:51even if you turn notifications off.

00:53Experts say this can lead to eerily accurate ads

00:56and unwanted data tracking.

00:58Sure, some permissions make sense,

01:00like Ring using your mic for security,

01:03but many are far beyond what's needed.

01:05Bottom line, you might be paying for free apps with your data.

01:08So the next time you hit Accept, think twice.

01:11That's nothing you'd be paying for right or not.

01:19It's the only way to get a record.

01:21I was going to figure out my policy.

01:21I was hoping this was a good one.

01:23I was hoping this was a good one.

01:25I was hoping this was a good one.

01:27I was hoping this was an amazing tool.

01:29I became a very good one for sure,

01:29and if I saw this, that's really strong.

01:31I'm hoping this had one bit more time.

01:32I might have been paying for it.

01:34I was hoping this was a good one.

01:36So I could have an amazing tool.
