Should the mobile phone software APP with SDK plug-in exposed on 3 15 be removed from the shelves?

With the rapid development of technologies such as 5G and Internet of Things, the data economy is playing an increasingly important role, especially the App involves all aspects of people's lives. However, while App serves people's livelihood and is convenient for users, there are also a large number of apps that excessively claim rights and collect personal information beyond the scope. It is worth noting that in addition to the personal information collected by the App itself, most apps will be embedded with third-party integrated SDK and other codes during development, and third-party codes such as SDK embedded in the app will also collect personal information.

Everyone should have heard of SDK, which means software development kit (SDK) in programming development, and it is also a plug-in in mobile APP that is responsible for providing some functions or services. Today's CCTV 3 15 party, some mobile apps? Thief? Plug-ins are public. According to reports, on 20 19, 1 1, the Shanghai Consumer Protection Committee will entrust a third-party company to conduct special tests on SDK plug-ins in some mobile apps. It is found that among more than 50 apps, SDK plug-ins of Shanghai Keerxin Information Technology Co., Ltd. and Beijing Cai Zhao Want Want Information Technology Co., Ltd. secretly steal users' privacy without their knowledge.

Testers pointed out that SDK is just a seemingly ordinary plug-in, but because it is common to all mobile apps, many mobile apps may be embedded in the same SDK, so once an SDK steals users' personal privacy, it will affect many mobile apps. In this test, in addition to the embedded SDK plug-ins, inspectors also found that some well-known mobile apps also collect user privacy, involving cool ringtones, mobile phone ringtones, ringtones and so on. We shouldn't allow this kind of thing to happen in people's personal privacy, and some bad software should be removed. We should protect citizens' legitimate security rights.
