The women’s homestay played with the smart speaker and found that there was a “candid camera” function: the normal function was just used in the wrong place
July 1, Benxi, Liaoning. When Ms. Yang was playing with the smart speaker in the homestay room, she found that the camera of the speaker captured many private videos of the guests, so she communicated with the landlord to check out and called the police.
Ms Sheep said,This smart speaker has a nursing mode, capturing six or seven videos of himself and his friends walking around the room, and there are many private videos of strangers below.Considering that the care mode of the smart speaker may be turned on artificially, it is really special.
As you can see from the video,This is a Xiaodu speaker that provides a “care assistant” function. The purpose is to monitor the actions of the elderly, children, and pets at all times, so that accidents can be handled and taken care of in time.
This function is also the monitoring function of the camera, but Xiaodu only takes pictures at home when the objects in the monitored range move and prompts for updates in time. It is very practical when there are elderly and children at home.
However, this speaker is placed in the homestay, and the “care assistant” function is also turned on, which is too inappropriate. After all, it is not your own home and may infringe on the privacy of others.
On July 4, Jimu News learned from the Gaoyu Police Station of Mingshan Public Security Bureau that a case has been opened for investigation, and the situation reported by Ms. Yang is under investigation and verification.
