Your Robot Vacuum Is Watching You (7,000 Homes Exposed)

February 27, 2026·14 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

A robot vacuum just exposed 7,000 homes across 24 countries, and nobody got hacked. One guy with a PS5 controller stumbled into live camera feeds, floor plans, microphone audio, and device locations for complete strangers. All of it wide open.This is a DJI RoMo story, but it's really a story about what happens when a capable company moves too fast into unfamiliar territory. The flaw wasn't exotic. It was a basic permission error that encryption couldn't fix.I break down exactly what went wrong, why "encrypted" doesn't mean "safe," and what you need to start asking before you put another connected device in your home or office.If you found this useful, subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss a first look.Thank you for watching,Harrison Painterwww.LaunchReadyAI.com
