Nekogram APKs Accused of Hidden Spying Code | One Jail Break
A new investigation by security researcher Repinek is raising alarm over Nekogram, a widely used third-party Telegram client, with claims the app’s Android builds may include covert spying functionality. The report alleges that released APKs contain hidden code capable of collecting and silently transmitting sensitive user data.
The core concern isn’t just privacy, it’s trust. According to the findings, the behavior identified in compiled APKs does not exist in the project’s public source code, suggesting users may be installing something materially different from what developers publish on the Nekogram GitHub.
