Eufy users: first time?
Wyze users: first time?
What’s the low down on this? I just bought a Eufy system thinking it was great because all the video storage is local.

Basically there are instances where e2ee was promised but not actually present.
I believe that images sent alongside notifications may lack e2ee as well but am unsure.
Still remote access so… 🤷🏻♀️
As a eufy user, now I don’t feel so bad
You still should!
I mean I still feel bad
Just not as bad.
If you can access the data, so can someone else.
Yep, just confirmed there is no end-to-end encryption and that they can see anyone’s cameras at any time (or anyone that compromised ubnt)
That’s not true! I bet you can’t see this comment cuz I’m real super sneaky on the security.

Shit, I accidentally pasted my password into a comment again. Guys? How do you delete a password from a comment?
hunter2 jokes aside, that’s a pretty good password.
Not anymore.
Thank you! I launched NordPass and generated it just for the bit!
The only safe data is data that no one can access, including yourself?
When I lose things it’s almost always because I’ve put them in a safe place. Safe from me!
But yeah it’s really about factoring in likelihood and opportunity. I think it helps to compare physical and digital spaces. If you have a CCTV system, then anyone could watch the monitors and see what’s happening - however they’d have to get into the building, find their way to the secure room, log in to the system, etc. When something is online it creates better opportunity for surreptitious access and also greater likelihood in terms of the number of people who could potentially come across it. While in the physical space you might get away with having staff control access during the day and locking the door at night, online you have to have far more robust security measures to achieve the same level of safety.
So it’s maybe better to say: the easier it is for you to access data, the easier it is for someone else to.
