📢 我们Tech team 和 China and Tech research teams今天新发表的研究成果: 我们研究了@joinClubhouse app’s 数据安全措施和中国大陆用户的潜在风险.
 
🔗 cyber.fsi.stanford.edu/io/news/clubho…
 
以下是我们的发现👋🧵⤵️

(1/8)
1. AgoraIO, 一家位于上海的初创企业,一般被猜测为Clubhouse提供了后端平台

(2/8)
2. @joinClubhouse用户ID(而不是用户名,更像是唯一的序列号)是通过Internet以纯文本格式传输的,因此很容易被拦截。聊天室ID(再次不是房间名称,更像是序列号)也以明文形式传输。 

(3/8)
任何互联网流量观察者都可以轻松地在共享聊天室中匹配ID,以查看谁在与谁聊天。对于中国大陆用户,甚至在政府封锁Clubhouse之前,这令人不安。 

(4/8)
3. @agoraIO可能会(但不一定)提供用户的原始音频。 AgoraIO表示它不存储客户音频,但《中华人民共和国网络安全法》可能会迫使该公司合作移交用户数据

(5/8)
4. @joinClubhouse 用户权限中说明它“暂时”在其自己的服务器上记录用户音频。不清楚服务器在哪里,或“临时”服务器有多长时间。如果服务器在美国,则中国政府不太可能获得对其的合法访问权限

(6/8)
5. 中国政府可以惩罚中国大陆会所用户,但我们(和他们)可能不知道这件事-中国审查制度是复杂的,有时是不可见的。我们还将讨论为什么中国现在禁止了该应用程序

(7/8)

📢 New work out today from our Tech team & China research team: @joinClubhouse app recently became popular in 🇨🇳. We looked at its data security practices & found a potential risk to mainland Chinese users.

🔗 cyber.fsi.stanford.edu/io/news/clubho…

Here are our key findings 👋🧵⤵️

(1/8)
(1) .@AgoraIO, a Shanghai-based startup, provides the backend platform to Clubhouse. This has been widely suspected.

(2/8)
(2) .@joinClubhouse user IDs (not their username — more like a unique serial number) are transmitted in plaintext over the internet, making them trivial to intercept. Chatroom IDs (again, more like serial number) also transmitted in plaintext.

1/ 📢 Out Today: A new report on the contours of Parler. Our team examines growth dynamics (non) moderation policies, and platform growth in 🇧🇷 and 🇸🇦 .

🔗 and 🧵⤵️

2/ Our analysis pulled data from three snapshots of Parler’s roughly 29 months online. We looked at metrics from the API to map join dates and linguistic patterns on the site.
3/ Parler has roughly 800 moderators, but their moderation practices were purely reactive and did little to filter out spam or fraud accounts.
