4/ADI Profits at the Expense of 🇺🇸 Security
@ipvideo exposed how Resideo's ADI unit sells so much CCP spyware that 🇨🇳 Hikvision salespeople wear money outfits and shoot money guns at joint events.
Appalling.
3/ADI's president Rob Aarnes should know better.
Aarnes is a Naval Academy grad and former naval officer.
Yet industry experts at @ipvideo describe Aarnes as "the largest distributor of Hikvision and Dahua in the United States."
These CCP spy cams are a massive security risk.
🚨CCP Spy Cams Are FLOODING America
Lorex Tech does ENORMOUS cam sales through @Costco.
Florida TOP COP @AGJamesUthmeier asks: is it all 🇨🇳CCP Spyware?
Experts at @ipvideo find Lorex had MASSIVE imports from banned CCP-Dahua leading up to subpoena 👇
ipvm.com/reports/florida-ag-…
As part of a consumer protection and data privacy probe, our office has issued a subpoena to Lorex , which sells security cameras for home and business use, due to possible ties with the Chinese military.
Lorex does not describe any involvement of banned CCP companies in their products, or associated risks.
@ipvideo argues Lorex and other companies are simply selling millions of re-labeled Dahua products.
This could be deceptive & unfair to consumers. AGs should find out!

Feb 2023 - Feb 2024, @ipvideo estimates "Lorex has received...4,323,581 lbs of equipment from Dahua and Dahua's Vietnam "manufacturer" Kangyin Technologies. This represents a minimum estimate."
Translated? "1.5 million cameras, assuming 2.5 lbs per camera."

Problem solved?
Not so fast! Lipstick on a pig isn't a fix.
According to industry experts at @ipvideo, Lorex is importing MILLIONS of pounds of Dahua products into the US.
Dahua's shipments to Lorex INCREASED after the ban.

"Povećavaju kapacitete prilično značajno," kaže @healy_conor direktor istraživanja @ipvideo istraživačkoj firmi iz oblasti nadzora. "Ako se ovo implementira u Beogradu, ukazivalo bi na gustinu kamera retko viđenu van Kine."

Major decision! Which hopefully will be noted by other governments. !! Next step: Canada should put Hikvision on targeted sanction list for human rights abuses against the Uyghurs, as asked by @ipvideo, @Uyghuradvocacy, @C4ADS.

Owned by state-owned enterprise China Electronics Technology Group Corp (CETC), controlled by Beijing. @ipvideo has been raising red flags about Hikvision for years; they analyse surveillance tech for the international sector. Minister @melaniejoly will be great at @ised!
