NetNut botnet takes a hit. Don’t be part of the next one.
Google, the FBI, and partners disrupted the NetNut botnet, which used hijacked consumer devices as residential proxies. The operation reduced the botnet's device pool by millions through account disabling, infrastructure sharing, and app warnings. NetNut tricked users into installing malicious apps under the guise of 'bandwidth sharing' payouts.
