Don’t know why people are surprised all these super cheap Chinese camera companies are doing shady stuff. There is a reason these cameras are dirt cheap. The consumer is indirectly the product.

It's not really shady stuff, it's just pure ignorance of cyber security. Afaik they don't use the data, they are just incomprehensibly unsafe with how they implemented the feature.

Reading into it. It sounds like they are super incompetent. Even if there is no malicious intent it's still blatant violation of GDPR and whatever the American equivalent is.
