True. But the only people who have complained so far have been android users. I did consider the possibility that iPhone users were simply less likely to complain.
It's not really an Android issue - an iPhone with Chrome and permissions set a certain way will likely eventually get it as well. It's a malfeasant ad service.
On your Android phone or tablet, go to Settings and then Apps.
If you have an app named Network, (may have a symbol that looks like three green bars next to it), go ahead and delete it.
