DJI Launches New Robot Vacuums With An Eye Toward Data Privacy
DJI, best known for drones, has launched a line of robot vacuums and is positioning data privacy as a selling point of the new products.
Why this matters: Robot vacuums map your home. That is not a metaphor. They build detailed floor plans, learn your routines, and in some cases send that data to company servers. DJI already carries significant scrutiny over its ties to China and how it handles data from its drone products. A privacy pitch from DJI is interesting, but the real thing to watch is what data these vacuums collect, where it goes, and whether users have any real control over it.
