    @player_one Why would this occur? Would it be a way to mask the transfer of illegal stuff, like say, kiddie porn?

      @player_one Thanks, makes a bit more sense. I'm trying to see if I can get data usage data for the app on my phone.

        @Pangloss Not sure why it would happen. I assume, and it is only that, an assumption, that Lexulous get paid to allow a variety of websites to send or receive data via their app. Hopefully the developers can explain it before we unintelligible, 2Gb is a huge amount of data...

                        @player_one We've checked and are unable to locate any such malware or activity in our code base. If you continue to see such activity we recommend that you contact Google Play Store directly and share the information you have with them.

                          @betterlate1 I did, but I've a feeling it had stopped this behaviour earlier. I'll investigate later when I can get to my other phone and will get back to you. But thanks for your input.

                            @lexulous Could you confirm for me if it is more likely that the packets identified are being pulled from my device or pushed?

                              @player_one our engineers would need access to your vpn logs and your device to test. At this stage you should contact Google Play Store with your findings in detail. They should have more information.

                                @betterlate1 Yeah sadly it's still happening. Don't know how to attach a screenshot into the forum, but I've just seen another 2 porn sites appear. But clearing the cache was worth a shot, cheers.

                                  @lexulous I have reported it to Google Play store, but sadly not had a reply so not sure what else we can do. Uninstalling seems severe, but there's clearly something going wrong somewhere.
                                  It's happening via mobile data and wireless, to 3 devices, so not likely a 'man in the middle' injection and it happens despite the version being run.
                                  Clearing the cache didn't do anything.
                                  Do you have a log of traffic between my devices and the lexulous servers?

                                    @player_one we do not have such logs. Our team tested from VPNs in different countries and could not replicate this. Sorry we cannot be of further help in this matter. If you have doubts the prudent step would be to uninstall.
