FunkyMike Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) Owners of Nokia 7 Plus may have sent sensitive information to a server in China for several months. The Data Inspectorate in Finland has now started investigations after NRK's disclosure. - Based on our preliminary analysis, one can assume that personal data has been transferred, says Ombudsman Reijo Aarnio to the newspaper. In February, we got a tip from Henrik Austad, a reader who had monitored the traffic on his Nokia 7 Plus. He noticed that the phone often contacted a server and sent off a data packet. The package was sent unencrypted and when he inspected the contents of the package he was worried: Every time the phone was switched on, the screen activated or unlocked, his geographical position, as well as the SIM card number and the phone's serial number went to a server in China. Why does HMD Global, the Finnish owner of Nokia, send personal user data about their customers to a server in China? ... translated via google https://nrkbeta.no/2019/03/21/norske-telefoner-sendte-personopplysninger-til-kina/ https://www.androidauthority.com/nokia-7-plus-user-info-967901/ Edited March 21, 2019 by FunkyMike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
