#Overview "Given a choice between dancing pigs and security, users will pick dancing pigs every time." -- Ed Felten and Gary McGraw

This is an Android app that steals all the names of apps installed on device and sends them to a web server. I developed this app in summer 2014 to validate Ed and Gary's famous quote.

So I did it, I wrote an Android Dancing Pig app to (hope to) prove @cigitalgem’s + @EdFelten’s quote about security. pic.twitter.com/Bhharh7k8e
