#The topic of police not recommending cameras at home#

Aroused the attention of netizens

Why is it not recommended to install cameras at home? ?

According to reports, most of the current surveillance is used through wifi, and videos are uploaded to the cloud disk every day. If the user does not set a complex password, there is a risk of privacy leakage.

Why do home cameras become \”privacy black holes\”?

The data is naked, and hackers can break it when they touch it

There are loopholes in some cameras on the market, and hackers can easily crack the default password, peek at private images, or even make profits by live streaming. There have been cases that after the family surveillance was invaded, family life and child dynamics were all \”live broadcast\”.

Cloud storage becomes a \”leak channel\”

Most cameras upload videos to the cloud by default. Once the server is compromised, the whole family\’s privacy will be \”naked\”. Police advise: If it is necessary to install, local storage or LAN mode will be preferred to cut off external network risks.

Bedrooms and bathrooms have become \”hard-hit areas\”

Camera is installed in private spaces, and images such as changing clothes and taking baths may be intercepted by criminals, or even used for blackmail. Previously, a landlord was sentenced to install a camera in the tenant\’s bedroom, which sounded the alarm.

Installing cameras

These \”forbidden areas\” cannot be touched

Avoid privacy areas

Installation in bedrooms, bathrooms, and locker rooms is strictly prohibited! The angles need to be adjusted in public areas such as living rooms and doors to avoid photographing neighbors’ homes.

Select a brand, focus on security

Recognize the certified brand of the Ministry of Public Security, regularly update passwords and check equipment angles. Beware of low-priced and miscellaneous brands, and the safety performance is not guaranteed.

The legal red line cannot be stepped on

The \”Regulations on the Management of Public Safety Video Image Information Systems\” will come into effect on April 1. Illegal installation or privacy disclosure will be subject to a maximum sentence.

How do special families balance security and privacy?

Single-living elderly/children: The camera is installed in the living room, avoiding the bedroom, and setting up a mobile detection and alarm function.

Hiring a nanny: inform and sign an agreement in advance, and the camera only covers public areas.

To install a camera

You should look at it dialectically

As long as you pay attention to avoiding pits

If you need it, you still have to install it

Install only in necessary areas

Avoid over-monitoring

It is also recommended to upgrade encryption technology

Restrict access permissions

Prevent data leakage
