Google has filed a lawsuit against the operators of the BadBox 2.0 botnet, believed to be the largest smart TV botnet globally. The botnet compromised over 10 million uncertified devices, including TV streaming boxes, tablets, and projectors running open-source Android. Cybercriminals pre-installed malware or used malicious apps to download malware, enabling large-scale ad fraud and other digital crimes. Google seeks an injunction and unspecified damages. Google has also updated Google Play Protect to block apps associated with BadBox 2.0. The FBI is also.
