Смысл: The main idea is that a network traffic analysis of the MAX messenger reveals no suspicious data leakage, hidden trackers, or abnormal activity, contrasting it favorably against the high volume of background requests seen in apps like WhatsApp.
An empirical study using AdGuard reveals that the MAX messenger app exhibits surprisingly minimal and non-suspicious network activity over a 30-day period.
Смысл: The main idea is to debunk fears of clandestine surveillance in the Max messenger by demonstrating that its AndroidManifest.xml contains standard permissions for a messaging app and adheres to modern Android security protocols that require explicit user consent.
A technical analysis of the Max messenger's AndroidManifest.xml reveals that its requested permissions are standard for its functionality and do not indicate systemic surveillance.
Смысл: The text aims to objectively compare the privacy footprint of the new MAX messenger against established competitors by analyzing requested Android permissions, concluding that while MAX is currently 'leaner', it possesses some questionable unique permissions and overlaps with WhatsApp in ways that Telegram does not.
A technical comparison showing that the MAX messenger requests fewer Android permissions than Telegram or WhatsApp, though some specific requests remain suspicious.
Смысл: The text reveals that the 'Max' messenger is a rebranded version of VK Group's TamTam/Odnoklassniki, lacking end-to-end encryption and storing data in plaintext, making it unsuitable for private conversations.
