Comment on Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) Phishingparent

Comments

PWAs are generally considered safe to install because they are just a website (running in a sandbox) plus some fancy desktop integration. Normal software you install doesn't run in a sandbox and has much more capabilities.

However, as with every phishing attack, the user must ignore small (security related) hints.
