You're a bit off with the "phones" part. Sideloading doesn't let someone download and install apps on your phone; it just means you can install unvetted apps. It's all about freedom. It’s not to say there isn’t any risk, but you're making it sound worse than it is.
Did you put in your google or apple account when you set up your phone? Youre wearing a GPS watch, sitting on windows 11. Yet talk about tracking etc, it makes no sense when they probably already know everything about you. (AD WISE) Also Sideloading doesn't mean anyone can load an app on you're phone. Apple dose allow sideloading as well because we the CONSUMER should make the choice not a company. All you had to do was download an app and activate your action cam. Then you have a warranty straight from the app and can also send off for repairs if needed. Lastly all the millions of DJI DRONE users have been using this app for 5+ years now with no issues no ransom or scam. All you had to do was have a quick google to see. Hope you get to use the Osmo more its really good especially for the price.
Totally this. I'll bet Amazon have already harvested his details and passed them to numerous companies, while his Mobile phone used its mic to listen to him and target specific adds on RUclips. I get that its unscrupulous, but its tough to avoid these days.
That makes about as much sense as saying, because you are wearing a baseball cap the wrong way around you shouldn't wear sunglasses. GPS doesn't need personal identification, it just needs a receiver, and there isn't a windows version in history (so far) that cannot be used without registering, if you have the know-how.
Wow! You got almost everything wrong. You really let your paranoia get the best of you, and performed some pretty impressive Dunning-Kruger acrobatics, there. You slandered the crap out of them, man! Most of what you said simply isn't true.
It's not Ransomware Steve, it's Extortionware. I nearly unsubbed from you for this misnomer, it doesn't lock you out of your PC, encrypt your drive, and charge you money to get it back, that is what Ransomware is.
But you are happy enough to give Google an open book to your data , how else did you manage to create a RUclips account , and Monetise that account, hell Google even asks for your Tax number details . but you cant or wont download a simple app that makes warranty claims easy, gives you new features through firmware updates etc .
Stumbled upon your video looking for camera reviews. I have to say, it was the first and last time I will look at one of your videos! I was struck by the condescending tone and missing logic in the video! Every camera has some sort of registration that is on the company's website or in an app! What were you expecting? Every app you use collects info about you for the company that made the app! You accept that when you use an app, no matter which one! It looks like you use Windows and Apple devices and software. Microsoft and Apple also do what you are accusing DJI of! You've probably been digitally transparent for a long time already! Besides, recent mobile phones allow you to allow or disable permissions for apps! You shouldn't throw dirt just because you have difficulty finding out how a camera works! You're acting as if you were totally broad-sided by DJI! Didn't you inform yourself before you bought the camera? Inform yourself better next time, BEFORE you buy! C'mon, man! Be better!
I got your point and in some way I understand you. But: Most of your opinion is not pretty right. You don't need use a Mimo for filming or download clips. Activation is for warranty start point too. Neither fort updates which is better and better. You can use a false email, if you worried about privacy. How some guy mentioned, you gave your data to Google loooong time ago. And is not correct you have to use only with phone. On tablets works too. It's your choice of course. Btw, Apple doesn't have a problem with their (DJI) app, it's available on store. So... Too much worries, I thing. Have a nice day! 😊
Perhaps it's a new routine built into the software. 🤷 I actually looked at the 4. The 4 wasn't quite as nice for night shots or HDR, though it was down to around $209 on Black Friday, so definitely a good price. I went for the "better" one and got burned.
@@SFBGuitar The four is the same now. PLUS they want a credit card and a dollar to download their ap. lol. I might return it. China... I also love how all the fanboys are really upset that anyone would have a problem with this.
So sorry you had issues with DJI. I have had similar issues with GoPro. With GoPro we had the doors blow open in 12feet of water due to a design fault. Even under warranty they wanted a $99 fee to replace it. So with DJI you can delete the app off your phone once you registered it. Personally I like DJI products and use a lot of them so not to bothered about what data they mine and let’s face it Facebook and google have been masters of tracking us and snooping on our activities for years.
I activated my Action 4 in the same way, nothing happened, I just activated the camera, and the Mimo App that I basically use to do firmware updates. You can block the installation of unknown apps after installing Mimo, and if you are so suspicious, you can do this on a device that is not for your personal use. I see no reason to worry, but I agree that the obligation to register the camera and having to use the app to make updates is annoying.
What that company is doing is as you point out borderline criminal behavior. I would contact the Massachusetts Attorney General office and lodge a complaint. I’d also alert the FBI’s cybercrime division. They clearly think that most buyers are too stupid to realize what they’re trying to do. I think the Supreme Court case involving the repair rights of owners of John Deere tractors may read on this situation as well. This kind of behavior really gets me steamed!
I also contacted dji support to opt out of the privacy policy. They said i couldnt even though in the fine print it says in the U.S. you can. What a load of BS.
After activating the camera with Mimo, why can't I uninstall Mimo from my phone and download videos from the camera onto a PC. Then I can edit the video with whatever software that I have to hand. Comments please...
Hmm... I was thinking about going DJI mic 2s for the DJI GImble I have (for NAMM and in studio)... but now I'm have to look into what the heck is going on there at DJI!! Thanks for this valuable bit of public announcement! And... MERRY ROCKMAS!!! 😮😎🤘🎸🎹🎵🎶🎄🎅
GoPro insisting on using their premium account to get a discount on a camera is one thing; DJI doing this is something else entirely. I know I'm never using a camera from either company now.
In the same vein as this another thing I hate is how you need to give your phone number for basically everything now. I'm pretty sure some company sold off my number because I get like 20+ spam calls a day.
@papablue3015 Isn't it a Chinese company? But you're right papablue... corporate America is out of control... there will be a tipping point eventually... regulation and overturning Citizens United would be a good step forward.
Now you’ve registered, sending it back will make no difference. It’s a good camera and well worth using. Delete Mimo from your IPad if you want, although you also need Mimo for updates!! Can’t download them either like we do on GoPros. I used an IPad for mine as well. I agree that it shouldn’t happen and Consumer Associations should get onto it. I think Insta did the same. Appalling practice.
I just tested the Action 5 for the 1st time while skiing, I reviewed the videos and I have mixed feelings, I switched from the 1st dji osmo action (0 complaints about that camera) ,I recorded in multiple frame options and my impression is mixed, with RS on and then Horizon stabilization there are some weird jitters (cam is mounted on the front of my helmet), I am going tk edit the clips soon, that is
I use an older phone that was formatted and just use for mimo app for my DJI action 5 plus pocket 3 and Neo and love them all especially the pocket 3. thank you for the video..
Bro, They are just one of a thousand companies that require activation of their products. If your worried about privacy, too late, all of your info is already taken
You're slightly mistaken about the "only phones" part. Android is a mobile OS, and it's up to the developer to decide whether an app is for a tablet or not. The size and compatibility aren't inherently malicious. Tablets contain just as much data.
I was going to switch from the GoPro12 to the DJI Action 5 Pro, for better low light performance. I think I'll stick with my tried and true GoPro, and just deal with the lighting issues.
Interesting. My GoPro 8 locks me out of some advanced features if I use 3rd party batteries in the camera. I feel the same way about that behavior as you do about the DJI registration mandate. I really think that too many manufacturers are starting to feel that they can strong arm us about all kinds of aspects of the products that we have purchased outright. I'm not leasing or renting it from them. I have purchased it and it is now my property to do with as I wish without their interference.
Yes, run the man down for having a legit concern. Does that then mean you agree to big business taking your money but you never really own the product? He's not in a rental contract. He purchased the item. It belongs to him to use as he pleases. Not only DJI. The US government banned the mimo app specifically for security concerns. Hows that for a tinfoil hat scenario.
@@FishingBruZA UR so funny! As author as well. Both quite unexpectedly found that commercial companies has the only goal - money. No shame, no public or civil responsibility, no humanity. Just money. Congratulations!
Any device that is tied to an "app" is a hard pass for me. Even our employers are trying to get us to install "apps" on our personal property now. Nope.
Sorry, hypocrisy here. I'm sure you give your details to lots of IT companies. The app is a great addition and helps maintain software versions, some neat editing s/w. Definitely not ransomware.
DJI and all the Chinese camera and gear manufacturers without North American service center networks should be avoided, trust me - don't do it unless you consider the gear disposable. edit: if you have side loaded on android, just enable the disable unused apps features.
Steve, you should make sure you can export video off that camera without issue if youre gonna us it at NAMM. Otherwise just send that stupid piece of shit back
I was looking at this camera about a week ago. I definitely don't want to buy it now. Anything that makes you have to jump through hoops is not for me. If companies could make an app for a simple football, they would, that's if they haven't done that yet. I just watched a video, "World's Most Extreme Slip 'N Slide" and they were sponsored by Osmo. Yeah, I'm glad I saw this video. Thanks for the heads up.
Great info bro 🤘and IF it was a great piece of gear I would probably keep it ....I feel like things that piss me off in the beginning I can forgive as long as it performs like a mother, if not..Got to go.
Would I keep the cam? Hell no! Send it back. And I be really careful that I didn't accidentally drop it down 3 flights of stairs the day before I was sending it back, too!
Today I asked myself why in the world is everything so shit I mean really everything and now you come with this video, how dare you, how dare you right now 😢😅😢😅🤷♂️...i mean, come on, people can really destroy EVERYTHING but the problem is that there is nothing left...why..WHY we have to live in a idiocrathy
Just keep the device and use it. No offense you’re probably not that important to them. Middle age musician, I’m one too. I just don’t think they care that much about us, for you to worry. Makes for a good video. And don’t get mad you asked for our opinions. I kept mine by the way.
After seeing this GoPro and DJI will not be getting my business. Tired of all this despicable greedy corporate overlord behavior that goes on in this country. Definitely send that locked device back and get your money returned.
Ransomware is something that encrypts your files and charges a ransom for unlocking them. So by definition, mimo app is not a ransomware (but yes it might be a spying on you, that I don't deny). The reason many companies are refusing to put their apps on the playstore is because of the atrocious fees Google charges for hosting them.
This is an incredibly misleading video. Return the stupid camera and go away if you're not even going to try reading a little first. And enabling other sources on an Android phone won't allow people to randomly install apps without your knowledge. And you can enable to stupid setting again after the app you knowingly downloaded is installed. I'm not sure technology is your thing. Maybe you should go back to film. And using a device you intend to return is theft. As for your stripped down Anbernic, Wi-Fi 5 can be used to get your precise location. You can literally watch a live map online of virtually every WiFi network probably including yours.
Good for you! I was interested in getting one of these until I saw this video. Now I have no interest in it, and would prefer to buy a worse product that does things properly than this shady product from a chinese company.
paranoia,... i just get one, 2 weeks ago, not registered, using it normal.. And remember, you are using a google account that guess what it does with your data?
People whining about DJI are also using Google lmao. Everyone thinks they are James Bond or something, who do you think could actually reach you? Your government or the CCP?
Seems like you had a senior moment... multiple videos have demonstrated unboxings and registration processes of DJI products... past, present, and I'm sure into the foreseeable future. Do better...
100% right, this SHOULD be illegal! I'd return it on principal - sure they might not care, but if u do it.. and I don't buy... and enough of us don't put up with this.... MAYBE ... MAYBE they'll get the message. wishfull thinking maybe.... but .. ya know.. every journey.. blah blahh single step etc etc
every one is doing it steve even dang daws steve you buy it and then you have to pay for updates or licens after you buy it scamers the hole things a racket why because eddie van hallen said so lmbo im looking into new daw mixcraft buy once and its a fully functionle studio lol and cheap

Seems like you had a senior moment... multiple videos have demonstrated unboxings and registration processes of DJI products... past, present, and I'm sure into the foreseeable future. Do better...

Send it Back.

I'd return it on principal - sure they might not care, but if u do it.. and I don't buy... and enough of us don't put up with this.... MAYBE ... MAYBE they'll get the message.

Dji is that Bad ? To many years ago I start with AutoCad , Maya, of course few other High-end Programs Windows, Apple Apps etc...Anyway Many users can understand. Sorry your case you won't make sense to me!!

Brutal!
No
Maybe delete this video Steve. If anything happens to the CEO of DJI, this is what's known as a "clue".
Привет 👋Смотрю тебя из России в твою веб камеру. Держись мужик. Паранойя и деменция ходят рядом. Если кто за тобой и следит, так это твой смартфон, планшет, компьютер, WIFI роутер и всё что подключено к интернету.😂 Там ты не регистрировался надеюсь? Ладно. Шучу конечно. Так что если ты не совершаешь преступления то чего тебе боятся? Что майор разветки увидит твои гитары? Или как твои дети катаются на качелях. Серьёзно? Ты считаешь им есть до этого дела? У них есть на это время?
Hahahaaaa you made me laugh at 14,22 😅👏👏👏👍THX
Miguel Sanchez 😂 de Boston
