Hello everyone, recently various well-known apps that skip splash screen ads have been receiving lawyer's letters one after another, demanding them to stop updating and maintaining. I believe everyone has heard about it.
Apps like "Da Sheng Jing Hua," "Ding Xiao Tiao," "Li Tiao Tiao," "Yi Zhi Chan," "Beng Ta," "Qing Qi Dong," etc., none of them are exempt.
In fact, these types of apps simply utilize the accessibility service function provided by the Android system to simulate gestures and automatically click the skip button. They do not invade or damage, nor do they affect the integrity of third-party applications. Some of these apps don't even require any permissions or internet access. I wonder how much more conscience they have compared to those big company apps.
The author of "Li Tiao Tiao" also expressed his opinion in an article. If he asks his friends to help click the skip button in the app, does it count as infringing on the interests of the manufacturers? After all, the nature is the same whether the user chooses to use skip software or asks someone else to click skip.
We can only say that we are all lambs waiting to be slaughtered. They feed you shi but don't allow you to wipe your mouth with a cloth. We can only wait for the country to further rectify these chaotic situations.
Alternatively, we can simply not use apps from big companies, although many people may not accept this. So, as a second choice, you can go to Google Play to download these big company apps. They won't be as arrogant there, and it will also be much smoother and alleviate the problem of phone lagging.
As for these skip apps, although they can no longer be updated, they can still be used for a while. Since most of them do not require internet access, the software authors and manufacturers cannot control how they are used.
Some netizens also impulsively expressed that they could simply open source the software. In fact, such software has long existed, but it just isn't as famous. It is called "Skip Splash," which is not only free and open source but also available on Google Play with a decent rating.
I wonder if the great companies care about the software mentioned above and whether even if they bring up the second and fourth articles of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law, it would be applicable.
