Voodoo Carrier IQ detector
by Volker Weber
This app's goal is to let you find out as easily as possible if your Android device hosts CarrierIQ rootkit or not.
Question: do you trust this app?

Supercurio has been very active in the xda android community for years and usually publishes his source code, too. So: yes :-)
May well be true, Flo, but I'd say it is a damn good instinct to ask. You can almost guarantee that there are people out there writing malware apps that they will say do this same thing.
As little as I want my carrier to have the information, I even less want the malware writers to have it.
This would be a century old tradition: "Den Teufel mit Belzebub austreiben" (roughly: use Satan to chase out the Devil) :-)
Just say'n - it's not an opinion about the author of the software.
No.
