Hacking Phone Cameras

in #privacy5 years ago

This week Checkmarx released a video exposing a vulnerability in android cameras that allows hackers to use your camera, record your conversations, and find your location, all without you knowing.

I explain how the hack works, and what you can do about it.

Biggest takeaway:
Always update your apps and your phone's OS!

This is part of my ongoing privacy series inspired by Snowden, to teach you about the vulnerabilities in your devices and give you tools to help you live a modern, privacy-conscious lifestyle.

I wasn't paranoid enough thank you 🙃

haha none of us are paranoid enough, but I'm almost there ;)

Hello @skycorridors Great info, appreciate all your efforts in support of crypto. I see that you post your videos through Youtube, which I know is great because of traffic views, but I just wanted to mention that the Steem Blockchain now has 3Speak as an option for Videos and it even has live stream. I tried Dtube and it never worked for me. With 3speak it worked the first time! Anyhow, Naomi, your vids are great, your hosting is awesome, and maybe @roelandp can have you co-host a future STEEMFEST event.
Take care.

Do you know if they have an autosync function? I'd definitely be interested in setting up an acct if so

Hello @skycorridors Not sure... but as an update.... I have signend up for both d.tube and 3speak.online since they are both on the Steem Blockchain, but also because neither is perfect...so when one doesn't work the other usually does.

In fact. now that I have your ear.... you can see my latest vid here.....hope you like.... Digital Fan art

Happy New Year!!

thx for this info: i am aware of this and constantly update within 2 days.

Thanks for watching!
