This disruption aims to dismantle malicious residential proxy networks and protect users from malware. Google Play Protect has been updated to warn users and disable applications that incorporate NetNut SDKs. The action is expected to have a ripple effect across the residential proxy ecosystem, and Google will continue to observe and adapt to the changing landscape. Google's efforts are part of its ongoing objective to keep the digital ecosystem safe.
