China and doesn't spy on your phone, I'll take things that don't go together for 200 Alex

I'm in China and work as head of IT security for a European company. As such I monitor my phone religiously for any transgressions. Netease Music works with zero permissions (unless you want to use the downloader) and doesn't try to exfiltrate any data whatsoever.

Install PCAPdroid and see for yourself, you can monitor all traffic on system level on a per app basis.
