Privacy/homecalling of Dreame robots #317

Closed mlario closed 2 years ago

Thanks for your great work on liberating robotic vacuums!

Might be not the best media to ask this question, but:

How is your firmware dealing with data collection/logs/telemetry/remote camera access present in a factory firmware?

If using default build settings on https://builder.dontvacuum.me (including DNS patch) does you firmware block access to xiaomi cloud (any kind of hosts files), log collection and sending (e.g. removal of telemetry client), and remote camera access?

Also since Dreame L10 pro is one of the better options regarding software support (Valetudo) and hardware (512 RAM), is there any privacy downside comparing to D9? E.g. is front 3D sensor in L10 pro capable of making photos or videos of surrounding?

Thank you so much!

Actually this was answered on telegram user group for those who'll be looking for the same answers: https://t.me/joinchat/cx8HZEdpa6xlZDk6

These robots should not collect data or make connections to xiaomi servers.

Expected connections: ntp and GitHUb if requesting to update firmware

As for L10 pro front camera sensor - it is covered by the red filter so won't see too much
