洩露用戶去過的餐廳和酒店?大衆點評這一波操作惹了衆怒

泄露用户去过的餐厅和酒店?大众点评这一波操作惹了众怒

現在手機裡的App太多,每天生活都離不開它們,但是作為用戶,你的隱私很有可能就在這一次次的點擊中被洩露了。

大眾點評近日公開為侵犯用戶隱私道歉。此前有用戶指出,大眾點評在未經允許的情況下侵犯用戶隱私,洩露用戶行蹤。

Diangping has apologized after a user accused it of exposing her whereabouts without authorization and violating her privacy.

幾天前,北京消費者李女士發現了平臺上的蹊蹺,該App在未經授權的情況下將她的瀏覽歷史和評價透露給她的朋友。

A Beijing-based user of the services platform, identified as Li, discovered last week that the app had been revealing her browsing history and comments to her friends, without her consent.

此前,李女士允許大眾點評App通過微信訪問自己的個人信息和通訊錄,卻不知他們會將自己的行為透露給好友。

The uncomfortable experience began when Li allowed Dianping to access her personal info and contact list via WeChat, unbeknownst to her that they will publicize her activities to her circle of friends.

李女士在接受《經濟日報》採訪時表示:“我的大眾點評首頁開始頻繁出現我的好友關注過哪些餐廳、點評過哪些景點、入住過哪些酒店,而且這些人都是我的微信好友。”

"Then I started getting feeds about what restaurants my friends are interested in, what places they have visited or what hotels they have checked in," Li told Chinese media outlet Economic Daily. "And all these people are my connections on WeChat."

李女士懷疑,自己的行蹤也被大眾點評跟蹤記錄,並推送給了朋友。“我化名在大眾點評上發點評、點贊、收藏,是因為我願意(在匿名的情況下)跟陌生人分享我的體驗。現在生活裡的好友能夠看到我在大眾點評裡的活動軌跡,我覺得很不舒服。”

Li thus began speculating that her own activities could as well be tracked by Dianping and might also had been pushed to her friends without her consent. "I use a handle when I comment, like or mark something because I like sharing my experiences with strangers [anonymously]," Li noted. "But now that my friends in real life could track my whereabouts on Dianping. I felt very uncomfortable."

既然如此,李女士決定採取行動,她關閉了點評的這個功能:不再允許在點評上找到她,也不允許接入其社交媒體帳號。

結果是:此舉並不管用!

She disabled Dianping’s function that allowed her WeChat friends from finding her and blocked the review forum from accessing her social media account – but that didn't help.

在App的發現頁面,李女士還是會看到有些微信好友的動態。

She still kept seeing the activities of some of her WeChat contacts on the application’s discovery page.

這下沒轍了,李女士聯繫了點評客服,但是卻又發現了“新大陸”。 在自己使用微信登錄的短短几天裡,大眾點評主動替她關注了26位微信好友,然後這些人也就成了她在大眾點評中的好友。就算她刪掉了微信授權,這些好友關係依然存在,此前同步過的信息也不會刪除。

The unhappy user contacted Dianping's customer service, only to be told that the application had automatically linked her to 26 of her WeChat friends, also users of Dianping. Even if access to WeChat was denied, they were still connected on the other app.

點評這一波操作實在太過分,經過媒體曝光後成了眾矢之的。7月9日,點評正式在微博上道歉。

Dianping came under fire for breaching users' privacy after Li's story emerged. On Monday, the company issued an apology on its Weibo account.

同時,大眾點評還承諾在7月10日推出新版本,升級系統以更好地保護用戶隱私,並且新增功能可以讓用戶禁止App內社交功能。

The platform also promised to upgrade its system to better protect user privacy, adding a new function to let users disable all social networking features within the application starting July 10.
