This is adware first and foremost, so the goal is to get people to use their devices and see the ads. What's interesting about Shuanet is that it doesn't seek to wreak havoc on an infected device or clog it with other malware.

It also attempts to root any device it is installed on, allowing the malware to survive factory resets. Shuanet doesn't just display ads, though.
