The point is that not only the person installing the application but also the information of the person registered in the person's address book is taken and the point is that "Because I do not have this application installed, it is OK" Even though I thought that if someone registered you in the address book installed this application, it's out.
According to NHK, the problematic apps are the following 16 titles, and it is necessary to check whether the person installing the following applications is around.
"K-ON! K-ON! Movie"
"Make a good stick! The Movie"
"Masters of the hit" the Movie "

On the Android Market, there are multiple suspicious apps wearing "the Movie" after the popular application name. Since these applications seem to be "reading contact data" and "reading status and ID of the terminal", it would be safe to avoid installing these applications. #androidjp
As a result of the analysis, it is ascertained that the user's telephone number, e-mail address, mobile number and e-mail address in the address book are all being transmitted.

Get the phone number of the person who seems to be making the Movie application! I think that electric convex can be done with this.
The Movie author began to escape.
You already know your home address. @ Wakatono I do not think I can run away w QT @ lumin: the Movie The author started running away.
Can I get a phone number or home address of Android developer in a legal way ...? I guess the investigation cooperation.
In that case, many years of experience and know-how is what you say. @ Bulkneets Android developers' phone numbers or home addresses, etc. Can you obtain them in a legal way ...? I guess the investigation cooperation.
The Moive author I wonder if I stop from stopping the server, will I stop the server?
And stop the server. Collecting personal information leaked by this will stop once.

The Movie server stopped. This can be relieved. Thank you for your cooperation. > Stakeholder
Indeed it means "It can be relieved with this" in the sense that damage will not expand any more, but the possibility that a considerably large number of personal information has already passed is great. Anyway, what about the author who made this series of applications and disappointed to use a lot of personal information gotten?
