It\ndoes not collect user data. It is a proof-of-concept for research purposes to show flaws in the way\nhow audio advertisement is often implemented on Android. It does not alter or\n\"hack\" protection measures of music players, and only gathers context\ninformation provided by the Android runtime. It simply turns down phone volume when it detects advertisements. Nonetheless, ad-free may be against\nterms of services of music players. Muting commercials may not be supported and\nmay result in a temporary ban. Use at your own risk.\n\n\n## Licence\nThis project is lisenced by the Apache Lisence 2.0\n\nTHIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED BY THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND CONTRIBUTORS \"AS IS\" AND\nANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED\nWARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE\nDISCLAIMED.
