Is it true that the surveillance camera in Chengdu is lost?

Recently, a website named "Water Drop Live" has attracted the attention of netizens by broadcasting various real scenes. The live broadcast platform selects scenes captured by real-time cameras, such as streets, pubs, communities, restaurants, and even hotels and underwear stores. In Chengdu alone, there are 266 surveillance cameras, which are "live" by the network.

After working for two years, he realized that he was "alive" at any time.

Mr. Lu is one of the shareholders of a beer hall in Chengdu. He does business here every day, unaware that the live surveillance camera in front of the bar has been working for two years, and he and the customers in the beer hall are the protagonists who are "live". When the reporter presented the scene to Mr. Lu, he was dumbfounded. "It's a bit annoying. I didn't know I was broadcast live. This is an absolute invasion of my privacy. I want to find them to defend their rights. "

In order to find out the situation, Mr. Lu quickly contacted other shareholders of the beer hall and learned that it was installed by another shareholder two years ago. "Other shareholders should monitor the safety of the beer hall. When they leave the beer hall, they can also see the situation in the hall with their mobile phones, which also plays a display role on the Internet. "

The community has also become the location of live broadcast. A surveillance camera is broadcasting the scene at the entrance of chenghua district Huarun 24 City Community in real time. The reporter randomly asked the owners who entered and exited the community at the entrance of the community. The owners of six communities did not know that they were "live". Ms. Alice, an American resident living in the community, told the reporter: "It will be a bit uncomfortable to be broadcast live without your knowledge."

More than 266 surveillance cameras are "real-time"

There are not a few scenes that are "live". On April 30th, the reporter of Chengdu Business Daily opened the website of water drop live broadcast, and the selected area was "Chengdu, Sichuan Province". The page shows that there are 299 live broadcast rooms in all parts of the city that are broadcasting every move of citizens' lives from the perspective of monitoring. In these live pictures, there are people coming and going in residential areas, busy intersections, and even relatively private consumption places such as bars, hotels and massage shops.

Among the 299 live broadcast rooms in Chengdu, the live broadcast room named "Chengdu Street View (West Street)" is the room with the largest number of viewers, with a broadcast volume of one million.

These real-time images are transmitted to the network almost in real time. In chenghua district Huarun 24 City Community, there are three cameras above the signboard of a supermarket, and a section of sidewalk in front of the community 1 is broadcast live 24 hours a day.

"This is simply a realistic version of the Truman Show." A citizen who learned that he was also in the live screen said, "We don't know, so it was broadcast live online. The key is that in addition to some public places, other private bars and hotels also have such live broadcasts. So, where do we start to protect our privacy? "

As of 3: 00 pm on May 2, the reporter saw on the water drop live website that under the "Chengdu, Sichuan Province" page, 33 live broadcast rooms have been offline, and there are currently 266 rooms left.

After purchasing the camera, the installer authorizes to upload the monitoring screen.

Where did these real-time monitoring pictures on the Internet come from? How did you get these live pictures of water droplets live? Chengdu Business Daily reporter launched an investigation.

"You must buy a 360-inch camera for the live broadcast of water droplets." The clerk of a pet experience store in Wuhou District told the reporter that considering the safety of the experience store, the store bought one a year ago.

"360 smart cameras" is a surveillance camera installed in front of the store, facing the bar. According to public information, Water Drop Live is a live video show platform under Qihoo 360.

In the uploaded live video, many people don't know that they are being "live". Is the behavior of the camera installer uploading the surveillance video to the network suspected of infringing on the privacy of others? In this regard, many people who publicly monitor the live broadcast of water droplets said that they "don't know the right to privacy" and "don't know that there is such a regulation". A supermarket owner who installed a camera at the door bluntly said, "I installed it outside my store, why not?"

Lawyer: Suspected of violating public privacy.

"This kind of behavior violates the public's right to privacy." Chen Xiaohu, a lawyer of Beijing Peng Lan (Cheng) Law Firm, said that it is an infringement to put pictures and personal images of public places recorded by cameras on the Internet for anyone to click without permission.

"The live broadcast platform cannot shirk its responsibility on the grounds of' user's own decision'." Lawyer Jian Jiang of Sichuan Android Law Firm believes that the person who uploaded the video (that is, the installer who agreed to share the monitoring screen to the live webcast) uploaded the live content to the network without the permission of the live broadcaster, which was suspected of infringing on the privacy rights of others; The live broadcast platform has the obligation to review the content played by users. If the live broadcast content infringes on the privacy rights of others, the live broadcast platform should also bear corresponding joint and several liabilities.
