Eufy, a prominent manufacturer of security cameras, recently initiated a campaign where users could earn $2 for submitting videos of thefts, both real and staged, to help train its AI systems. The company aimed to collect 20,000 videos each of package thefts and car door incidents. Users could upload their videos via a Google Form and provide their PayPal details for payment. Despite the initiative's potential benefits in enhancing AI detection capabilities, it has sparked concerns over privacy and security, especially in light of Eufy's previous issues with data protection. The company has since launched a Video Donation Program, offering users various rewards for contributing videos, but doubts about its commitment to safeguarding user data persist.
