In the case of Android, εxodus has one[1], though I couldn't find the malware library listed in TFA. Aurora Store[2], a FOSS Google Play Store client, also integrates it.
That seems to be looking at tracking and data collection libraries, though, for things like advertising and crash reporting. I don't see any mention of the kind of 'network sharing' libraries that this article is about. Have I missed it?
No but here's the thing. Being in the industry for many years I know they are required to mention it in the TOS when using the SDKs. A crawler pulling app TOSs and parsing them could be a thing. List or not, it won't be too useful outside this tech community.
> Has anyone tried to compile a list of software that uses these libraries? It would be great to know what apps to avoid
I wouldn't mind reading a comprehensive report on SOTA with regard to bot-blocking.
Sure, there's Anubis (although someone elsethread called it a half-measure, and I'd like to know why), there's captcha's, there's relying on a monopoly (cloudflare, etc) who probably also wants to run their own bots at some point, but what else is there?
