You know, I have eight ring cams. My login is protected with 2fa. I have no pity for someone who uses stupid passwords, then wants to sue because they were to lazy to secure their account. Honestly Ring should just force people to enable 2fa so we don't have to see one of these FUD articles every six months.
- justinclift 6y agoFrom the article: However, as the lawsuit alleges, Ring was hacked in 2019 – meaning the stolen credentials from that breach may have been used to get into users’ cameras. That means the hacks that Ring has allegedly blamed on customers may have been caused by Ring itself. So putting it down to "dumb users doing dumb things" seems pretty wrong.
- crmrc114 6y agoI call bs as there has been no confirmed hack. Just because some reporter at the guardian and some attorney claims there was a hack does not mean there was one. Ring has consistency said these users were reusing passwords that had been compromised. Again I think the solution is to mandate 2fa. The same way laws had to be put in place to force router manufacturers to stop defaulting to open ssids with no kind of encryption.
