killerloanapps

Multi-jurisdiction tracker for predatory / abusive digital-lending apps. Same playbook across markets: harvest lending apps from the Play Store, capture the paperwork (legal entity, privacy policy, developer contacts), pull permissions, score every app against the DeepStrat 7-family indicator rubric, then recheck availability so deletions are recorded rather than lost.

Live corpora refreshed

Recheck every app id against its own storefront on every refresh, then re-harvest new listings.

Historical corpora frozen

Research snapshots kept as of their harvest date. These apps have moved on; the listing metadata is the record. Deletions below are from the original corpus record, not a fresh check.

Highest-scoring apps (live lending scope)

Headline counts cover lending-scope apps only. The keyword harvest also catches general payments, shopping, ledger and foreign listings; they stay in the dataset and on each corpus page under out of lending scope — labelled, not dropped (data/scope_rules.yaml).
