  And HikVision cameras seem to have no end of security issues. Sharing this most recent one cos HN loves cited sources but there's a ton of independent issues https://www.forbes.com/sites/leemathews/2021/09/22/widely-used-hikvision-security-cameras-vulnerable-to-remote-hijacking/?sh=7eb9a2c72f31 https://www.forbes.com/sites/leemathews/2021/09/22/widely-us...

    Sadly, both HikVision and Daihua have apparently produced hardware for the Chinese government to help them do facial recognition on the Uighur population, and otherwise commit atrocities against them. And both HikVision and Daihua have a large array of brand names that they sell under: See: https://ipvm.com/reports/hik-oems-dir https://ipvm.com/reports/hik-oems-dir and https://ipvm.com/reports/dahua-oem https://ipvm.com/reports/dahua-oem

      The crazy thing about this to me is that Chinese spy hardware is actually the best defense against the US Gov spyware if you live in the US. There is less reason to care if China is spying on you, they are not going to suddenly arrest you. The US governments will though.

    To be fair, is there a network camera that isn't complete garbage when it comes to security? I've just accepted that there isn't and always recommend having them on a separate VLAN segregated from the rest of the network and access is controlled by a bastion host which only allows trusted machines to connect.
