'Free' apps cost more than you think: here's how they do it

You know the drill with the Play Store: for all its joys, it’s full of crap too. A new study described in the MIT Technology Review demonstrates that some of that crap is deeply disturbing crap. Researchers from Eurecom in France have created tools that can see what servers apps are connecting to in secret, and they’ve tried those tools on 2,000 apps from the Play Store.

In total, the apps connected to 250,000 distinct addresses across nearly 2,000 different domains. For example one app, Music Volume EQ, connected to almost 2,000 distinct internet addresses, and 10 percent of apps tested connected to more than 500 different URLs.
