In October this year, Zhao Zhongbin, the main criminal of the South Korean secretive filming and pornographic revenge website "Room N", which caused the anger of the whole society, finally pronounced a verdict and was sentenced to 42 years in prison.
But at the same time, there are still countless illegal sneaky organizations like Room N, lurking around us.
A few days ago, another "Room N" incident occurred in China was exposed, and you think that safe places may be covered with pinhole cameras, and the most intimate activities of unsuspecting people are sold as goods that satisfy perverted desires.
And the camera industry chain at the bottom of CCTV tells us that even if it is home monitoring installed by ourselves, it may be spying on you... Give somebody the creeps.
This week, the B station up master "pickpocket girls boring friends" released a video of sneaking into the candid shooting organization, causing heated discussion among netizens.
The blogger received a private message asking for help, and the private message was a toilet shooting incident in the girls' school.
In order to find out the inside story of the candid filming industry, she decided to sneak into the candid photography organization to find out.
The terrible thing was that finding a sneak peek organization was so much easier than she thought, and they didn't even bother to hide.
Searching for a few keywords on social platforms, you'll find several chat groups. Many of them have no threshold for adding groups, and bloggers have successfully joined several of them.
The ID of joining the group on the same day as her is as many as the screen. According to the blogger's description, so many people join these candid groups every day, gather here to watch sneaky videos, and even share their new "works" with each other.
The blogger said that after entering the group, he immediately received a sneaky video of the group rolling in, including those who were going to the toilet, taking a bath, changing clothes, and countless intimate videos.
Just by saying that the toilet can be photographed in one category, the group can provide dozens of sneak shooting location options. What's even more frightening is that after they secretly shoot intimate videos of women, they will also attach positive photos of the victimized women. Locations range from restaurants, Internet cafes, KTV, to high-end shopping malls, office buildings and even schools.
The blogger said: "I would like to say that the picture is not impressive, but it feels like it is causing secondary harm to these girls who are secretly photographed, because they have done nothing wrong, just normal life." ”
What's even more frightening is that these groups are often associated with a variety of paid groups for candid filming and pornographic revenge, and the variety is outrageous.
Some are aimed at underage girls, some are aimed at hotel couples, and there are even many doctor-patient videos or medical staff videos that are secretly filmed by installing cameras in hospital rooms!
In other words, not only going to the toilet and living outside, but even medical treatment may be targeted, and privacy leakage. Perverts use women's bodies as cash cows, and a few minutes of video can sell for a lot of money in paid groups.
Rampant group owners, relying on perverted means to earn ten thousand yuan a month is easy. Even more disgusting is that they don't seem to be afraid of being discovered by their victims.
On the one hand, some women are frightened or ashamed and do not immediately call the police or take further action against them.
On the other hand, in this ugly circle, the pervert shoots the footage of himself being discovered by the victim, and the video will be more popular with the group because of "stimulation" and sell for a better price, which is too ironic.
The rampant incidents of organized candid photography are partly due to insufficient punishment and rectification.
The people who shoot the video, the people who spread the video, and the people who watch the video are all the murderers who hurt these girls and even force them into a desperate situation, and how many of the hundreds of people in each group are disguised as righteous gentlemen in real life?
They regard Korea's n-room as a "role model" and Zhao As a hero. They use the same foreign candid apps as N Room, which makes it less likely to be removed by regulation.
In order to pay high secretly, they go to search for all kinds of invisible cameras disguised as daily necessities, and such things that may invade your and my privacy are actually very good to buy.
When the blogger communicated with a camera shop owner, he hinted at a sentence of "is there anything that can be placed in the toilet to shoot", the seller is like grabbing the god of wealth, a brain introduced her to the toilet brush, trash can, aromatherapy box, facial cleanser, toilet cleaning spirit and other forms of pinhole cameras.
This reminds people of a previous set of pictures in South Korea that raised women's safety awareness, and perverts seemed to exploit our bodies by exploiting every common object in our lives...
This is a seemingly ordinary analog of the living room, but there are 7 kinds of pinhole cameras (each is a tool for committing crimes in real cases).
A camera sandwiched in the shadows of a painting, a camera disguised as an electronic clock, or a DVD player.
Dig a hole in the wall and cover the camera with wallpaper.
The camera installed behind the TV audio shell will definitely think that it is ordinary damage if you do not look closely.
The mirror seems safe, but it is actually a double-sided mirror that can see people from the back, and a camera is attached to the back.
The most outrageous thing is a bottle of water on the table that may also be secretly photographing you!
Hidden shots of bathrooms and toilets are even more frightening.
Under the toilet lid, above, on the sides, toilet paper cans, luggage racks, trash cans, and even door panels and screws may be hidden with cameras.
And a seemingly decent person, there are 9 places on the body can carry a candid photography device. From already infamous glasses, shoes, and watches, to outrageous headphones, tie clips, pens, and car keys.
The scariest thing is that the buttons and tie itself can actually be made into pinhole cameras!
As for the public changing rooms (swimming pools, saunas, etc.) where clothes need to be undressed, they are the hardest hit areas.
Smoke alarms, wall clocks, thermometers, socket holes may be hit, and behind the signs may be a pair of eyes.
So far, there are too many things that a girl needs to worry about when she goes out, even if we have seen through some perverted candid tricks, after arriving at the hotel, we have checked it again or we may be caught in the cracks in the ceiling wall.
I used to think that these things were too divine to encounter in life. Until last year, in the candid photography equipment seized by the Guangzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau, many things were found to have become criminal tools, and they were all "localized" in China.
For example, this bottle of mineral water,

This thermos cup, the camera in the black lettering part, is difficult to see.
Belt and bracelet, switch are on the back.
disguised as a clothing button,
There's even a camera sandwiched between two renminbi sheets!
This is no longer a problem that can be solved by teaching girls to pay attention to checking the camera when living outside the home, because the problem is never caused by the victim's "lack of safety awareness".
When school classmates, company colleagues, and lovers who get along day and night participate in secret filming, how can we blame the victims for taking it lightly?
What's more, recent reports by CCTV indicate that even ordinary cameras purchased by themselves may be at risk of being spied on.
According to CCTV reports, the victim, Mr. Zhou, bought a home surveillance camera in order to keep an eye on the living conditions of the elderly at home at any time. Unexpectedly, it led to the privacy of the home being completely outflowed.
It turns out that in addition to a large number of secretly filmed groups on social platforms, there are also a large number of illegal shooting groups that specialize in hacking into the cameras of various households, and there are illegal transactions that sell 400 camera information for 150 yuan.
From time to time, the group shares a large number of explicit surveillance videos, and the group owner not only sells illegal videos obtained after cracking the camera, but also sells APP that specializes in stealing camera pictures.
Internet security experts explain: Many people do not change the password after buying a camera, only use the ID and password that came with the factory.
Perverts first sell a large number of camera IDs, and then use software to crack the camera, peep a large number of real-time pictures, and some videos will be sold twice.
And some manufacturers are unknown, the channel is not correct camera sellers, themselves know such a black industry, and even some are the camera pirate group owners. They will deliberately produce low-security, easily cracked cameras, specifically for hotels, homes, bedrooms and other use cases to sell.
Then crack these cameras and sell them to a steady stream of customers.
For families, it is very important to buy a guaranteed camera from formal channels, and do not be lazy, the password username is quickly changed. In addition, it is necessary to check for viruses regularly, and do not install home cameras in private places such as bedrooms.
But it is impossible to prevent candid filming only by the efforts of victims, the supervision of bad businesses, the strict punishment of producers and disseminators of sneaky videos, and the strengthening of people's legal awareness and respect for personal privacy are all urgent needs.
No one wants to live in fear, and if they can only rely on doubting everything around them to protect themselves, then something must be wrong.
Room n is all around us, and no one wants to turn life into a dirty pastime for the perpetrator...
