Chinese TVs spying on users as reported by this company
Chinese tech products have always had suspicions of tracking on the users. As the Chinese TV brands have started to gain momentum in multiple markets including India and North America, the fear that these TVs might be spying on us is also growing. According to Chinese TV maker Skyworth, their TVs are collecting user data.
Skyworth has blamed a third-party app for the user data collection. The app called Gozen Service came preloaded on their TVs. The application was basically logging and sharing data about all other connected gadgets on the same Wi-Fi network as the TV. Skyworth has apologised for the issue and they have promised that they will be disabling the app with an upcoming OTA update.Â
