I had a hard melon this morning.

Let’s start with the cause.

Netizen Mengyx posted an article ** “QQ is trying to Read Your Browsing history” **, saying that QQ would read the browser’s history.

The following is taken from the original text:

Specific behavior

1. Read the browser browsing history 10 minutes after login.

  • Read all chromium-based browser history in %LocalAppData%

  • Reading IE History (FindFirstUrlCacheEntryW)

2. Run md5 on the read URL and compare it locally.

3. In the case of MD5 matching, upload the corresponding group ID (mainly keywords such as e-commerce and stock).

Events in progress

  • QQ 9.4.2 (published on 2021/01/17 20:32) removed the corresponding code and suspended the infringement.

  • TIM 3.3.0 (published 2021/01/17 21:39) removed the code and suspended the violation.

Subsequently, the netizen Qwqdanchun in the snow forum published ** “[original] on QQ read Chrome history clarification” **. With 220,000 views so far, the post has gone viral.

To sum up the elder brother’s article, is a backhand hammer, will hammer the melon tightly.

In fact, QQ will try to read the history of all Google browsers in the computer and extract links to confirm that it will be hit by Chrome, Chromium, 360 Speed, 360 security, Cheetah, 2345 and other browsers. TIM is even more ridiculous than QQ.

In other words, as long as you surf the Internet and have a browsing history, Tencent will see where you have been surfing the Internet.

Subsequently, a series of questions “How to view” appeared on Zhihu, which quickly rose to the second place on the hot list of Zhihu.

(It was actually the first one, but the entertainment industry is new, so you know…

Tencent also responded on Zhihu:

Let me explain it to you:

Recently, we found that the second hot search in Zhihu was actually their own melon, so we attach great importance to it. Turns out it was something as simple as looking at your browser history.

Look at your chat logs so you can safely surf the Internet, big data, okay? No matter what, I apologize in advance, but for now, I’m laying low.

Finally, thank you tech enthusiasts for looking for trouble. (a dog

Hey, why not use the “sorry about taking up public resources”?

But I was joking. I’m not in the cybersecurity community, but there’s something to be said about data security and online privacy.

I don’t know how many people remember the 3Q war. Although is the commercial behavior, but, 360 that year is to QQ scan user disk for the reason of war. After all these years, some companies don’t change.

Tencent says it didn’t upload any data, but the whole thing is like having a locked door in my house, you sneak in and rummage through the closet, and then say you didn’t take anything with you.

On the instep of a toad, it does not bite, but it is disgusting.

You saw not to know that I always love to search some idiotic questions!

What a shame!

For instance, 4006995555 why always call me, mobile phone screen shift how to make come down, the finger aches a bit and itchy what disease is, mango and shrimp can eat together wait a moment.

It is hard to believe that it is not used for other purposes. If you haven’t done anything now, you can’t tell what you’ll do in the future. With such huge information, it is hard to say that we are not leeks in the future.

Although Tencent has made adjustments, but we also put forward a lot of protection strategies. “Tinder” is also set off to become more excellent, the senior protection are arranged on. Of course, you can also use QQ browser, streaked directly. Beat magic with magic! Put the data safely in the hand of the goose.

However, with the rapid development of the Internet and big data, when can the law keep up with the pace of The Times and protect personal privacy strictly?

Many times, though, we sacrifice our privacy in exchange for convenience. Why haven’t you given me a convenience? Look at the pants.
