I'm sure we all value it, just to differing levels maybe. I've always been lapse tbf. The two wyze cams are in an empty property atm on a mifi thing, accounts are set up with unique email addresses though. My brother in law by contrast is fanatical about security, to the point I think he's lost the plot a bit, he's got 12 (iirc) cameras on his self build where 5-6 would have sufficed (Hik though) and ~16 zones on the alarm. He keeps all his passwords in a book and won't do Internet banking and has stickers over his laptop camera lol. Banking aside I don't over think security and I'm pretty pragmatic with most things.

sixwheeledbeast Posted September 10, 2023 Author Share Posted September 10, 2023 Keeps all passwords in a book, won't do internet banking but has CCTV... Daily Mail reader? It's understanding what the risks are, some are lower priority than others to a lot of people. I don't trust anything with my data and if some data is required I consider what would happen if it was mishandled. Happy to not use whatever it is if there is no trust, for work I use the same standards, wouldn't fit anything for a customer I wouldn't use myself. There is a big difference between knowing you like wearing M&S dressing gowns and identify theft, but either could be possible depending on what data is collected over time.
