SOME QINGGUO camera users recently found that their daily life was being live-streamed by the camera. Yixin, the company that makes Qingguo, said it has already closed the livestreaming function of the camera. Beijing News comments:
Asked by a journalist about the case, Yixin executives first said they had set terms for all camera users, and only if a user clicked "yes, I agree" was his or her daily life live-streamed.
However, an investigation showed the live-streaming term appears in very small fonts and is "hidden" among other terms in such a way that the user would most likely click "yes".
