The decision was made in connection with violations of the use of the store, DO Global engaged in advertising fraud in the applications. This incident has become known thanks to the publication of BuzzFeed, and now Google is actively engaged in the removal of all projects of the fraudster company. DO Global have an excellent indicator of application popularity, which has reached 600 million times. Although in the history of bans Google, the company is not the first, but is one of the largest. In addition to everything, Do Global received a ban on the Google AdMob platform, which means that they will no longer be able to promote their products on Google sites. And it all started because of the applications in which the code was noticed that causes imitation of clicking on ads. This code acted even with a closed application, and brought a rather big income to developers. These applications used the user's Internet traffic, as well as smartphone resources, which significantly affected the performance. All virus applications had common names and carefully hid their developer. DO Global violated the Play Store policy, and Google didn’t take long to respond.
