When shopping for the best streaming devices, it can be tempting to seek out the cheapest option, one that has all the features of more expensive models at a fraction of the price. While that can sometimes lead to some spectacular budget buys like the Roku Streaming Stick 4K, it can also lead you to some pretty sketchy devices that, according to a new report, come preloaded with malware.
The devices under fire for distributing malware are made by AllWinner and RockChip, two Chinese-based companies that have hundreds of 5-star reviews on Amazon.
