Recently, the topic #Police recommend not to install cameras at home# has become a hot search topic. Why is it not recommended to install cameras at home? Most of the current surveillance is used through WiFi, and daily videos are uploaded to the cloud disk. If the user does not set a complex password, there will be a risk of privacy leakage. Why have home cameras become a “privacy black hole”? ▲ Data is naked and will break if hackers touch it Some cameras on the market have loopholes, and hackers can easily crack the default password, spy on private scenes, or even live broadcast them for profit. There have been cases where family life and children's movements were "live broadcast" after home surveillance was hacked. ▲ Cloud storage becomes a “leak channel” Most cameras upload videos to the cloud by default. Once the server is hacked, the privacy of the whole family will be exposed. The police suggest: If you must install it, give priority to local storage or LAN mode to cut off the external network risk. ▲ Bedrooms and bathrooms are the worst hit areas Installing cameras in private spaces can allow criminals to capture footage of people changing clothes or taking a bath, and even use it for blackmail. Previously, a landlord was sentenced for installing cameras in a tenant's bedroom, which sounded a warning. Install cameras, these "restricted areas" cannot be touched! ▲ Avoid private areas It is strictly forbidden to install it in bedrooms, bathrooms, and dressing rooms! The angles of public areas such as living rooms and gates should also be adjusted to avoid taking photos of neighbors' homes. ▲ Choose a brand and focus on safety Look for brands certified by the Ministry of Public Security, update passwords regularly, and check the angle of the device. Be wary of low-priced, miscellaneous brands that have no security performance guarantees. ▲ Legal red lines cannot be crossed The "Regulations on the Management of Public Security Video Image Information Systems" will come into effect on April 1. Illegal installation or privacy disclosure may result in a maximum sentence. How do special families balance security and privacy? Elderly people/children living alone: Install the camera in the living room, away from the bedroom, and set up the motion detection alarm function. Hiring a nanny: Inform in advance and sign an agreement. Cameras only cover public areas. The installation of cameras should be viewed dialectically. As long as you pay attention to avoiding pitfalls, you should still install them if necessary, and only install them in necessary areas to avoid excessive monitoring. At the same time, it is recommended to upgrade encryption technology, limit access rights, and prevent data leakage. |
