- jnordwick 9y agoWhy is this being voted down? Is there something I'm not aware of?
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoI don't know (nor did I downvote). Qihoo 360 has a bad reputation, Zhong Hongyi is a Trump-like character. But if you aren't into the China tech scene, you've probably never heard of them before.
- tfcata 9y agoThe founder is the very first guy in China who used malware technique to prevent his own IE search enhancement plugin, 3721, circa 2004, from being uninstalled. It was a pain in the ass to uninstall this thing because it hooks so deeply in the system. Now it's sarcastic that this guy is running a security business. The most recent case is that they broadcast the footages captured on the so called security cameras on a website that it positioned to be something like Twitch but with daily life content. So you really got to see inside other people's house! Supposedly this needs to be enabled by the user as an option, but I'm not sure why so many people enabled it. They have stopped this 'service', without admitting that it's wrong. My hands shake out of anger when I'm typing this.
