Die #Saugroboter der #Deebot-Reihe von #Ecovacs sammeln #Fotos und #Videos in den Räumen seiner Nutzer, um damit #KI-Modelle zu trainieren. Dies geschieht im Rahmen des "Produktverbesserungsprogramms", dem Nutzer in der Smartphone-App zustimmen müssen. Dabei wird der eigentlichen Zweck verschleiert. Es bestehen Bedenken hinsichtlich des Datenschutzes, insbesondere nachdem Ecovacs aufgrund von #Sicherheitslücken in seinen Geräten in die Kritik geraten war.

Китайские роботы-пылесосы шпионят за владельцами.👁

Китайская компания Ecovacs, производитель роботизированных вакуумных уборщиков Deebot, собирает фотографии, видео и аудиозаписи из домов клиентов для обучения своих ИИ-моделей.

Как оказалось пользователи сами дают свое согласие на это запуская устройство.🤷🏼‍♀️

Политика конфиденциальности компании допускает сбор различных данных, от карты домов, до голосовых и видео записей, которые могут храниться даже после удаления учетной записи.

☝🏻Схожая проблема ранее возникла и у компании iRobot, когда интимные фотографии, снятые их роботами, случайно попали в социальные сети.

Longshot question for the Fed.
#Homeassistant folks; anyone out there running an #Ecovacs #deebot integration AND utilizing #bumper?

I have an N8+ which seems to be supported, and I can search and see people using it but I cannot get the vacuum to register with #bumper.

I have everything up and running, #DNS resolution appears to be behaving as it should (relevant domains return local addresses) but the vacuum never appears. I can use cloud, that appears to be a far less intensive setup, but if I can avoid it I would love to.

Anyone have any suggestions or "know a guy" who might be able to lend a few minutes?
Thanks!

Continued thread

If everything goes as planned, I might be able to get an initial PR towards github.com/DeebotUniverse/clie for this code.

But I first want to get charge state, the "auto clean" mode working and Clean Actions (start, pause, resume, stop) working.

Exciting stuff!
