This happened to me after clicking an Npub link in the body of a amethyst note:

My Android phone started downloading a series of 6 Zip files that took at least 10 minutes a piece

"En_fr.zip"

"En_it.zip"

Etc

I assumed they were offline maps for Google maps.

I tried cancelling them, but they would always start again.

A day later, I left Amethyst open on phone screen and when I unlocked phone again I noticed that my phone had composed a draft Note that was not something I would write. I also don't think it's something that was voice to text.

Is it possible for someone to put a program that instructs download manager to download zip files and execute them in a link that looks like an NPUB?

I was imagining this was like a web scraper that hijacked open Amethyst and attempted to post weird content.

Most likely it was just a scheduled download that I've never noticed before.

Creeped me out that my phone is downloading zip files that I have no idea what's in them.
