The most widely used UC Browser is not available in the Google Play Store. The UC Browser Mini version is available only if you search the UC Browser in Play Store now. However, it is not clear why the alibaba-owned browser is not available.
UC Browser has been accused of breaking the confidentiality of the user's information and giving notification of 18 uptime content. For several months, discussions and criticisms of UC Browser's allegations of trafficking of India's numerous user data are underway.
India has already started an investigation into the UC Browser trafficking In August this year, a report published in NDTV's Gadget Thrissics revealed that the Center for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) is working to find out how the popular mobile internet browser can send users' information to any external server outside India.
According to the statutor of the research institute, UC Mobile Browser is very popular in India. About 60 percent of total mobile browser users in the country use UC Browser. Besides, 33 percent of users use Chrome and 10 percent of the Opera browser. However, since the incidence of Google Chrome increased, the number of UC Browser users has decreased slightly.
It is reported that as soon as the Wi-Fi network is connected, the UC Browser user's mobile device's IMEI number and its location details can be reached on a Chinese server. Earlier in May 2015, a Canadian technology research firm said Alibaba Group Holdings paid more than $ 1 billion for sensitive data leakage on device users. The Canadian firm called the UC Browser as a security risk.
Mike Ross, who claims to be a UC Browser employee, said on Twitter that the UC Browser has been temporarily removed from the Google Play Store for 30 days. UC Browser is not yet available on Google Play Store to remove false news-advertisements and malicious content errors.
