Huawei smartphones can delete videos of Chinese protests and riots themselves

New COVID restrictions in China have caused mass riots and protests. It would seem that Huawei has nothing to do with it. Now we will tell you.

Here's What We Know

Reports appeared in Chinese social networks that videos depicting protests and unrest in the country began to disappear from Huawei smartphones in an unknown way. Owners have noted that the phones are erasing the videos without their knowledge.

How exactly this happens is unknown. Perhaps Huawei uses timestamps or geolocation data. There's also no information on where the files are stored (in the cloud or on the built-in flash drive).
