The software has been "named" to collect personal information, lawyer: suspected of infringing citizens' privacy.

The survey found that in June, 2020, 165438+ 10, the working group on illegal collection and use of personal information of apps evaluated and published 35 apps with problems in the collection and use of personal information, including Lian Xin. The evaluation pointed out that Lianxin App, a subsidiary of Zhejiang Jianxin Technology Co., Ltd., did not inform users of its purpose when collecting personal sensitive information such as user ID number and bank card number. After users clearly express their disapproval of open storage and telephone rights, they still frequently ask for users' consent, which interferes with users' normal use.

"If you get the list, contact information, position, etc. Suspected of infringing citizens' privacy rights without the user's consent. Even if the identification authorization page pops up, you need to get the user's consent and clearly tell the user to send a message to a friend. If it is explicitly told, most people will definitely disagree. "Huang said that for citizens who receive text messages, first-name content will also cause some panic, and the privacy rights of citizens who have never registered software will be violated." In addition, it is easy to cause further leakage and diffusion of information. "
