This is not an illusion , We have a lot of daily contact APP And websites record user behavior , According to the relevant regulations of our country , Collect and use user data , The user's consent is required , But there are only a few who can do it completely
Recently Tencent QQ One thing was exposed , It's kind of hard to accept
tencent QQ Secretly reading user browser data
1 month 18 Japan , Media reports said , tencent QQ There is an automatic reading of user browsing records , According to the verification , Google Chrome browser 、360 browser 、Edge、 Cheetah 、2345 None of these mainstream browsers are immune !
According to the article ,QQ Will read all kinds of User Data\Default\History file , When you read it, copy it to Temp In the catalog temphis.db, And then extract the links through the database tool
These links are the records of people's visits to web pages and pictures , For example, you search for a product 、 Click on a star's news or something , I have this information , Internet companies can do a lot of things , For example, push a product to you precisely 、 Pop up the advertisement of the star
According to the national standard 《 Information security technology personal information security specifications 》 Regulations , Web browsing records are personal sensitive information , So Tencent has no right to read without permission , according to the understanding of , At present, computers QQ and TIM There are similar problems , mobile phone QQ We haven't found
Soon , tencent QQ The official replied : It's true , apologize !
But Tencent QQ Explanation , Scanning a user's browser history , It is to judge whether the user has malicious login , All relevant data will not be uploaded to the cloud , It doesn't store , It will not be used for any other purpose
Zhou Hongyi was right
in fact , This is not the first time Tencent has been exposed to infringe on users' privacy , As early as 2018 In the year , Some users find that , stay vivo NEX Turn on the phone on the phone QQ When the browser browses some web pages , The camera on the phone will show a “ Lifting ” action
Mobile phones at that time QQ The browser team responded that ,QQ The browser confirms that there is an action of turning up the camera , But that doesn't turn on the camera , Not to shoot or record
Regarding this ,360 Safety company CEO Zhou Hongyi said , Now the problem of user privacy security has reached a shocking point , The reason why these companies dare to violate users' privacy so blatantly , Because the cost of breaking the law is low !
Now it seems that Zhou Hongyi is right , For example, this time QQ Secretly read events recorded by user's browser , Tencent just said it lightly “ I'm sorry ”, Then promise to correct , It's over , No punishment , Only those users who have been infringed have been wronged : Who let you use other people's products ?
In this regard , China should really learn from foreign countries
last year 12 month 10 Japan , In France, Google and Amazon are offered 1 Million euro and 3500 A fine of ten thousand euros , The reason is that the two companies did not get the consent of users , adopt Cookie Code and other ways to track the user's computer or mobile phone
It's also a violation of user privacy , Tencent just needs to say “ I'm sorry ”, And Google has to pay 1 A fine of 100 million euros , Which is more important , Be clear at a glance , If the cost of breaking the law is 0, So for those law-abiding people , It's insulting and unfair !
At the end
What's more worrying is , tencent QQ Violations of users' private data are not individual cases , Some enterprises even play “ Steal what is entrusted to one's care ” The trick of
last year 11 month , Shenzhen city has sentenced a case of planting a Trojan horse maliciously into a mobile phone ,2600 Wan Gionee mobile phone was implanted “ Pull up ” Trojan horse , Push ads to users like crazy ,APP I can't delete it , The initiator of evil is Gionee mobile phone manufacturer himself , It's shocking !
so , Invasion of user privacy is very common , Even mobile phone manufacturers have taken the initiative to implant “ Trojan horse ” To collect the user's wool , If we don't impose heavy penalties on this phenomenon , So protecting the privacy of users becomes empty talk !
