A subtle attempt to shift blame to the people that bought this piece of (apparent) junk, ""This occurred after the [family] connected the duplicate camera to their network and ignored the warning prompt that notified: 'Camera is already paired to an account' and left the camera running," she added."
'Camera is already paired to an account'? Could mean it's already been paired to my account and I'm trying to re-pair it. Could be a message indicating success – that you've paired it to the intended acco
Warning messages like this are entirely useless. If someone gets a message 'Camera is already paired to an account', they'll get annoyed and click through it. It doesn't tell them what the problem really is, it doesn't warn them of the consequences, and it's just plain in the way of them finishing the onerous task of registering their devices to get basic functionality.
A better message might have warned them, 'this camera appears to be already registered to another account, possibly because it was resold. I
Another good cloud implementation. The video leaves the local network, goes to some server somewhere where anyone can access it, and then the server sends it to someone else. Of course, you COULD just store the video on the local SDcard in the camera, but then it wouldnt be cloud enabled.
The quotation in the summary and even a bit in the article are very misleading. The company seems to take full responsibility for the issue and are not passing blame. The line right after that quote is:
"We are regretful that this was not addressed immediately and adequately by our support team, when discovered. We have addressed this and made some internal changes."
They do however have a previous incident where the exact same thing happened, and in that case they apparently suggested it was because two completely unrelated users used the same user and password (which wasn't true).
It's like the phrase "highly classified" - it means nothing. In the US something can be classified as confidential, secret or top-secret. There is no category "highly."
So what is bank-grade? I mean, we're talking key size here, so just give us a number. And obviously the implementation is broken if human error can put the same key on different devices.
Is that like the "military-grade aluminum" Ford has been advertising as making their trucks out of now? Does that mean they were made out of recycled beer and coke cans picked up in military bases from Bagram to Bragg?
