This is shocking news, so I brought it.
Please refer to the original text at the link below for details.
In summary, it is said that Android set-top boxes or TV streaming stick devices are being used as background advertising fraud and user traffic abuse devices without the buyer's knowledge. H96 is cited as an example, but it is said that over 1,000 other devices are being misused in a similar way.
Since there are reviews and recommendations for H96-based devices on domestic blogs and Clien, it seems likely that some people in Korea are using them unknowingly.
Please check the GeekNews content and device list to prevent damage.
