It’s safe to say, don’t buy cameras from shady places.

“Iowa sued Temu and its Chinese parent company on Wednesday, claiming the online retailer violates Iowans privacy rights and exposes them to spying by the Chinese government.”

Also, Cyb3rMaddy Investigated a Camera from Temu. There is some truth to China harvesting your data. But! Data was also being sent to servers in the U.S.

    This thread is about Iowa. I don’t know why you can’t stay on topic. Iowa is targeting Temu because they’re Chinese and won’t go after US companies that do the exact same things, or worse, because they’re US companies. I don’t know why you refuse to talk about Iowa in a thread about Iowa.

        I never once did that. I never said the article is false. My points were always:

        1. Temu is doing what every other US company is doing, and US companies collecting our data are more dangerous because they can actually hurt me.

        2. A double standard is being applied to Temu because of Chinese ownership, and reporting on this without acknowledging that double standard is propaganda.
