After Alibaba, Penguin has revealed its eavesdropping flaws! It is recommended to use private browsing when surfing the Internet

Recently, careful netizens reported that Tencent QQ and QQ office version TIM were found to scan users' Chrome browser history, search for shopping records and selectively upload them.

User privacy is once again ruthlessly trampled upon by Internet giants!

QQ automatically steals users' online behavior 10 minutes after opening

This problem was first discovered by netizen mengyx. He posted on the V2EX forum that he found that when the chat software QQ tried to read the user's browsing history, it was blocked by a security software. After further investigation, it was found that the QQ software would automatically read the user's browsing history of Google Chrome 10 minutes after logging in.

After the issue was exposed, more geek netizens joined in and dug deeper into this issue.

After a deep investigation, I found out that QQ not only reads the file directory of Google Chrome, but also reads the file directory of browsing history of other browsers! Specifically including but not limited to: Google Chrome, Chromimu, 360 Speed, 360 Security, Cheetah, 2345 Browser.

When it comes to stealing users' surfing records, QQ really plays its cards right for everyone.

No wonder there was a big battle between QQ and 360 as early as 10 years ago.

Internet giants abuse their technological capabilities to gain access to user privacy

In recent years, APPs have been repeatedly banned from obtaining user information. Although the situation has improved after many rectifications, some more secretive and difficult-to-detect behaviors of stealing user privacy information are still widespread.

For example, in the e-commerce industry, they eavesdrop on users’ voices, and then directly help you type in the search bar and wait for you to search.

For example, after chatting with a friend about something, you received an advertisement pushed to your friends.

Although many netizens have raised questions about being wiretapped,

But because there is no direct evidence, it has never been confirmed.

But it also gave people a shock.

If this is true, every one of us ordinary people would be like running naked in front of the giants.

And it is standardized into data items.

The same thing happened in foreign countries. When a user asked Facebook,

Facebook’s response was:

• "We serve ads based on users' interests and other profile information. And we need your permission to access your microphone."

In other words, as long as you authorize the APP to use the microphone, they will eavesdrop!

The New York Times once revealed that a company called Alphonso has a service that helps advertisers collect TV viewing habits. They implement this service by using a microphone to collect the sound of you watching TV in the background, and use machine learning to analyze the collected TV audio, advertising audio, geographic location and other information, and then deduce your living habits. The data is then sold to advertisers to achieve precise advertising delivery.

This is naked Internet technology bullying!

I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it

Why are apps so keen on obtaining user privacy or behavior information?

It's not about money!

Marx once said, "As soon as there is a proper profit, capital will become very bold. At 50%, it will lead to active adventures; at 100%, people will disregard all laws; at 300%, people will not fear crime, and will not even fear the risk of being hanged."

Behind the act of stealing personal privacy is the temptation of huge commercial interests.

The program steals user personal information like a thief, or makes illegal profits by reselling it, or uses it for commercial advertising.

Nowadays, smartphones have become a necessity in life. They are indispensable for work, entertainment, and rest, and have even become a part of the body. However, many apps ignore the rights of users and snoop and collect user privacy at will, leaving consumers with no sense of privacy or security.

Moreover, once a program or APP is installed on your computer or mobile phone, it will always be with you unless deleted, continuously stealing your privacy or behavioral information.

In the world of the Internet, most of us are swimming naked in front of the giants. All our privacy can be found on the Internet, and some Internet apps may know us better than we know ourselves.

At present, the penalties for related behaviors are relatively light, and criminals are fearless.

The enforcement of user privacy protection must be greatly improved!

Incognito browsing is recommended

Because QQ mainly obtains Internet browsing behavior by reading browser log files. As long as the Internet browsing history is not recorded by the browser, QQ cannot read the information.

In other words, is it possible to use the browser without recording the browsing history?

It really exists!

The specific opening method is as follows:

• When using Google Chrome, click the three-dot icon on the right side of the address bar.
• Select "Open new incognito window" from the drop-down box

You can enter the incognito browsing mode and avoid QQ eavesdropping!

I would like to ask all my friends to take action and send this to more people around you.
