DarthPusher
(Type: Info stealer)

Among the security vulnerabilities spotted in the Xioami Mi4 is an adware program called DarthPusher, which security experts say is used to deliver ads to the device. The actual adware is named “Yt Service,” and the developer changed the package name to make it appear as if it was developed by Google. Of course, DarthPusher was not developed by Google, nor does Google have any stake in the program. But it’s found on the Xiaomi Mi4 nonetheless, and users are forced to run it by default.
