Google has recently released that the Android market has ways of accessing a users personal photographs. If a user gives an app permission to access the Internet on their mobile phone, they have unknowingly given permission for Android to access their photos. This was not an intentional creation and Google is looking for ways to counteract it. In recent months, Google created an anti-malware scanning service called Bouncer. This service scans each app an Android user downloads for anything suspicious. If it finds something, a message is sent to Google. Google reviews the app, and if they find anything wrong with it, they are able to delete the app.
