Partly related to ads

I heard of something with Apple, somebody was able to change the checksum or something to an Apple app before it was submitted to a store and all the ad revenue went to that person. It was on a podcast I heard a few month(s) ago.

That happens on a daily basis, on both stores.

There is no way either company can manually inspect billion+ apps plus their updates. So they are putting AI in charge which people seem to ba able to fool once in a while.
