Are you sure? Android Chrome proxies all non-HTTPS traffic through a third-party server, by default. So it isn't like the traffic volume is impossible.



It's not by default, you have to enable it.

Yes but that's Google. I'd be surprised if Superfish had resources like that, or could generate that much traffic from their servers and not be noticed (by, say, Google). I could be wrong.


Superfish might have "benefactors" with deep pockets who want a scapegoat who won't squeal on them.


Wow, really? I never knew that and some googling didn't find any decent sources. do you have one?



Many thanks, easy when you know the right keywords >.<
