          so in other words you have to download the app (which takes advantage of this loophole). This is not new and this is why i tell people to pay attention to what they are downloading, but hey this is why we have jobs right? Because people fail to pay attention, their phone/computer/electronic device gets hijaked and then they claim they didn't do anything. This is why I don't download any apps on my phone that I have not researched and fully vetted.

              You are confusing it with the DNA sampler.
