According to the comprehensive report of the micro-network, some netizens found that when using the vivo NEX to open the QQ browser app, the front camera will automatically rise. After the media exposure, the behavior of the 'QQ browser calling the front camera to peek the user' is triggered. The uproar, making the QQ browser official have to come out to clarify.
The QQ browser product team said that the reason for this behavior is caused by calling the API interface, the camera did not do any shooting or collecting behavior, the mobile QQ browser will not collect any privacy of the user.
Vivo officially also launched the NEX system update package, and carried out a series of optimizations on the logic that the front camera was called by the APP. A new second confirmation authorization was added. When an unknown call behavior was found, the status bar flashed to remind the user.
It is worth noting that the update package also mentions the logic of optimizing the third-party APP to call the microphone. I didn’t expect the front foot of the vivo to be pushed. The Baidu input method will hit the gun. Some netizens found out that the Baidu input method is not. When waking up voice input, there is a phenomenon of secret recording.
Baidu responded that this phenomenon is caused by the optimization of the voice microphone preheating by the input method. The purpose is to speed up the voice activation speed and solve the problem of speech recognition and word loss caused by the previous user feedback. This optimization strategy will be in the scene voice strip. And when the voice panel is displayed, this optimization will make the vivo system think that they have started recording, but in fact Baidu input method does not record.
Tencent, Baidu's two giant apps, because software permissions issues have been planted on the vivo NEX mobile phone, and have responded, do not know if other software developers will feel the crisis is coming, it is time to regulate the APP permissions.
