The granddaughter of the "post -90s" was a camera for a lone grandma, but after becoming "Internet celebrity", she found that grandma is more lonely

"Fortunately, I have a monitoring at home, and it is difficult to imagine what happens if there is no monitoring to restore the truth."

"What about monitoring? No matter how powerful the technology is, it is not as good as the family."

This is a heated discussion caused by accidents.

In July of this year, Hu Apo, a 94 -year -old man who lived in Shanghai, accidentally fell off when he stood on the bed and put it, and then he died unfortunately. At the time of the incident, the nanny who had been sitting next to the mobile phone beyond the nanny of the mobile phone, but he lied to Hu's family that the old man was sitting on the bed. The remote monitoring camera in the home records all this. Once the video is released, people are angry at the behavior of nanny, and the topic of remote care has been repeatedly mentioned and discussed.

In recent years, household smart cameras integrating home security and remote monitoring functions have become the "standard" of more and more families. In a foreign country, or those relatives who can't always be with the side, choose to reach each other through such technical means that span the time and space, and get closer to the loved ones as much as possible.

However, people who installed cameras at home gradually discovered that the relatives accompanied by the camera seemed to be more lonely. While technology changes life, where should those real emotional needs and privacy security be placed?

Distant companionship

When Yang Ni's voice came out of the camera for the first time, the grandmother was startled.

It was one day in October 2021. Grandma was sitting in the living room to eat rice cakes and ate very fragrant. Yang Ni turned on the remote monitoring software on the mobile phone and just saw this scene. She felt fun and asked with a smile: "Granny, what are you eating?"

Suddenly heard the granddaughter's voice, the grandmother was surprised, and quickly put down the chopsticks and looked around.

"I'm on the TV cabinet!" Yang Ni shouted to the camera.

After graduating from college, Yang Ni worked and settled in Dongguan. His younger brother went to the boarding high school, and the Maoming hometown had only one grandma. Last year, grandma wrestled and was sent to the hospital after being discovered by the neighbors, making her family even more nervous. Yang Ni thought that we could install a camera at home. "At least what happened next time, we can find it in time."

Later, in order to allow grandma to see herself, Yang Ni replaced the unidirectional remote monitoring camera with a smart screen that could be a two -way video. In this way, across a screen, the ancestors and grandchildren in different places were finally able to "meet".

Grandma knew that the granddaughter may watch her behind the black ravioli at this time, and often stands in front of the TV cabinet alone, sharing good things in the camera. The picture originated from the monitoring screenshot

"Meeting" through the camera and his loved ones are Yu Na, who is in Zhengzhou, Henan.

The daughter who stayed in her hometown was just one year old. It was the age of learning to be active. Essence A white camera, hovering on the courtyard wall of Xinyang's hometown more than 500 kilometers away from Zhengzhou. Behind the camera is the guilt and concern of the Yu Na couple.

Putting on a camera that is more than 500 kilometers away from Zhengzhou, let Yu Na see a daughter over one year in real time. The picture originated from the monitoring screenshot

Every day after get off work, Yu Na will spend an hour or two to watch the surveillance video for an hour or two. In the camera, the daughter cried and laughed, and their emotions also rose together. As soon as they work, they will also open the monitoring software to see what the daughter is doing. As long as the daughter appeared on the screen, they called her, "Is the baby eat?" "Is it good?" "When to sleep?" ...

Yu Na said that she could only make up for the owe of her daughter in this way, and to comfort her who was left behind.

More and more people, like Yang Ni and Yu Na, choose to use users' cameras to solve problems such as child care, pet monitoring and residence anti -theft.

The average price of these devices is about 200 yuan, which not only has the function of shooting and records, but also realizes real -time voice or video dialogue. Some also have functions such as "crying monitoring" and "human form recognition". Their operation is also very convenient. Just maintain the device in a state of power and operate in the mobile phone app. With these intelligent monitoring equipment, "distant companionship" has become a reality.

untouchable

In the free time, watching the monitoring records became Yang Ni's habit. The more you can monitor, the stronger Yang Ni feels stronger: Grandma seems to be more and more lonely.

In the camera, grandma likes to stay in the living room, and it is several hours. She would sit on a red lounge chair bought by Yang Ni's father, just looking at the door. In the past, my grandmother would carry the elderly mobile phone with her. When she heard the ringtone, she immediately touched it. She pressed it clumsyly and put it in her ears. When she heard the voice of her family, she would show a long -lost smile. Now she will bring a smart screen, put it on the table next to her, keep staring at the screen, and always look forward to the appearance of her family. However, most of the time, such expectations will end.

Looking at the lonely appearance in the camera, Yang Ni felt sad.

The more the monitoring, the stronger Yang Ni feels: Grandma seems to be getting more and more lonely. The picture originated from the monitoring screenshot

Once, she made an appointment with her grandmother to talk at 8 o'clock in the evening, but fell asleep until 9:30 because of physical discomfort. When she looked back at the surveillance video, she saw that the grandma who did not receive the phone was very anxious. She walked around in the living room with her mobile phone and walked to the camera and shouted her name loudly. She never got a response. So Grandma took the flashlight to find the neighbor to help, and then called Yang Ni's phone. "I'm so uncomfortable. I was guilty and moved when I saw my grandma." Yang Ni recalled. Such a loss, a blogger who also shared remote monitoring videos on social platforms, and so on: "I have always felt that leaving my hometown to see a different world is a thing worth looking forward to and happy. Over -monitoring makes me reflect. If you ca n’t even do basic companionship to your loved ones, it will seem to be very difficult to work hard to work outside. "

For them, although remote monitoring can indeed be convenient to communicate to a certain extent, the distance between the distance can never replace the true companionship between people, and there is often a lack of security behind the incompetent.

Yu Na's daughter is only over one year old, and she has no concept of the camera. When the voice of her father and mother came out of the camera, she was very surprised. But with the increase of the number of times, her daughter gradually used to this way of communication. "Sometimes she ran under the camera in the yard and shouted" Mom and Dad ". She may think that her parents are in the camera." Yu Na said.

Every day Yu Na spent an hour or two to watch the surveillance videos of the day or two, making up for the pity that could not accompany her daughter to grow. The picture is provided by the respondent

Yu Na said that the most unacceptable thing was that every time she saw the child's small figure appearing under the camera, she stared at the camera and shouted "Mom".

In July of this year, the family's economy was a bit better. Yu Na immediately received her daughter: "I never have to accompany the child in the camera, and my daughter will never be the second self -behind herself."

Where is the privacy placed

On Taobao, JD.com and other e -commerce platforms, you can easily obtain a related product with "remote monitoring", "family surveillance", "home camera", and other keywords such as tens to hundreds of yuan. People always expect to be closer to their loved ones through this kind of technical means across time and space, but this leapfrog is always limited, and sometimes there are crisis.

Yujun Yu, the master of technology UP, was a programmer. He built a smart monitoring system composed of 8 cameras through the monitoring equipment purchased online and his strong programming ability at home to achieve mobile detection and High -altitude parabolic exemption, rooftop viewing and other functions. He also associated this system to his own WeChat to get the emergencies captured by the monitoring equipment at any time. For example, if someone hovers in front of his house, the light next to the camera will automatically light up and turn on the shooting mode, and then pass the video to Yu Jun's mobile phone in real time.

Yu Jun was very proud of his masterpiece, but he never thought that even as a professional in the computer field, he still left a security loophole.

Because Yu Jun often filmed popular science videos to upload to video websites and fans, it may be a negligence in a period of video. He exposed his IP address, "equivalent to putting my own key on the shoe cabinet at the door. The direct consequence of this is that a fan invaded his server and saw the monitoring picture of his family.

"He is actually not malicious. After the invasion, he sent me a message, but it made me feel ashamed." Yu Jun said that the behavior of the fans made him still. Similar things happened.

"In fact, the phenomenon of hackers invading home cameras is very common. It is difficult for non -professionals to notice it. Most people are often helpless when they encounter it." Yu Jun bluntly said.

In recent years, some criminals have used the security vulnerabilities of remote monitoring the camera to use hackers to crack, control the camera, and voyerate the privacy of others. Edem the privacy of others.

The reporter searched on the Chinese referee document online with the keywords of "illegal control of computer information systems" and "camera". A total of 46 documents were found. Most of the cases were similar. And perform online control and viewing through certain apps.

Yu Jun told reporters that many small -cost cameras in the market are not safe, and their technical levels are relatively low, and they are easily cracked. As early as 2017, the national quality inspection department issued a warning of quality and safety risks of smart cameras. Among the 40 batches of samples collected, 32 batches of samples were tested. Since 2021, the Central Internet Information Office will continue to promote illegal criminal activities such as the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Public Security, and the General Administration of Market Supervision. The public security organs have strictly provided the camera cracking software and the implementation of attack control of camera equipment.

In response to the personal rights protection of intelligent devices such as remote monitoring intelligent equipment, Han Xu, deputy dean and associate professor of the Digital Law Research Institute of East China University of Political Science and Law, introduced three types of rights protection. The case reports; the second is to complain to the online information department. For example, the camera of some brands is often broken by hackers. As a network service provider, it has the obligation to protect user information. After the complaint is accepted, the online information department will handle it according to law; The third type is that information leaks have caused losses to individuals. Individuals can compensate for compensation in accordance with the requirements of the Personal Information Protection Law of the People's Republic of China. Yu Jun is still constantly testing and improving the security level of his monitoring system. He understands that the huge demand of remote care is still relieved of safety issues. Behind a camera may be the concern of the family to the elderly, left -behind children, or the eyes of hackers.
