Android Question

Guest
Whilst browsing the Internet I browsed some fight websites and then some other stronger violent sites. Sometimes though I got redirected to porn sites, dating sites and other rubbish. At some point though I had a porn file on my phone in downloads saying don't forget to subscribe. Is this a form of hack or trojan? Or are these sites dodgy and capable of doing this? Any help would be appreciated.
 
I had the same thing happen to me. Downloaded virus protection and it cleaned it up. Then while trying to find info on a Note 4, in the back ground I saw Chinese writing and 18+. Scanned again, and put the phone down. This pisses me off.
 
I guess it depends on how you are watching it. Are you streaming through a browser? Using an app? Downloading it and watching with a media player? It could be a slow network connection, a low spec' device or even a malicious payload. Do you notice lagging when watching other media?
 
It actually might be a sort of a hack. I remember my little brother has actuallt faced a similar issue. He was also getting redirected to some rubish porn sites, after that he also got a porn file downloaded on his phone. It was also like 3 or maybe 4 years ago. Right now the ''defensive'' system againt the viruses are way better on evey single smartphone. However, still the ios is the best from this point. I remember i found this webcam site [moderator redacted] on his phone recently, and he told me that he was redirected to it. I guess someone is bullsh*tting in here :D .
