Android phones can bug you

Your robot could spy on you with Russian tech
A RUSSIAN SPYING TOOL could find its way on to your Android handset thanks to an app, insecurity firms have announced.
Called the Tap Snake application, it looks like a clone of the 1970s game Snake, but once installed it runs a piece of Russian surveillance software called GPS SPY. The software updates a central server with the user's position every 15 minutes and can't be turned off.
