I don't see how anyone can trust these folks now with their security cameras/software.

The moment the first scandal happened I would never touch them again for these types of products. Their lack of transparency and avoiding responsibility was a bigger issue than the actual vulnerability.

Shocked.

Not really. Seriously, what's the problem. They (corporation's) have our faces from last few years. Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, Alexa, any phone, all CCTV around the world, Government's...

One more make no difference 😜.

I think it is the principle, you opted out from something, that's what it should mean.

The wording suggests it is related to the late-2022 Eufy lies, not necessarily new Eufy lies.

@jouster could probably indicate if new Eufy lies or more of the old Eufy lies.

Sure, I've got my solicitor on speed dial to deal with all the unhonoured HUKD misprices.
