Malicious app developers offering to buy old apps from developers who are no longer active, so they can push malware onto those users

I just got offered by these people to sell my account for my old google play app. Googled the people offering, and I found this thread. Someone in the thread called this out as a malware vector, and I think thats the only way my app would be worth $350. Could this really be an attack vector?Crazy.

I need help advocating for privacy in my HOA, which wants to set up cameras in common areas

A new neighbor moved in and is really advocating for them, but I think most people in the HOA are split. It's come up after some recent thefts after someone left a garage door open. I'm thinking of organizing my arguments like this:

  1. Even with a camera capturing a thief's face, police are unlikely to actually catch the person or retreive the stolen property.
  2. Invasion of personal privacy, I don't like being tracked and my whereabouts being monitored
  3. Surrendering biometric data without my consent
  4. Police / ICE using the data without permission to harass our residents

How does this sound? It's so exhausting fighting against this. Does anyone have any other good points or articles that can provide support? Many thanks in advance
