NYT Wirecutter Revokes Wyze Recommendations Over Poor Security

The New York Times' product review section, Wirecutter, has announced it is pulling all its Wyze recommendations over the firms' poor security practices:

On September 8, 2023, The Verge reported an incident in which some Wyze customers were able to access live video from other users’ cameras through the Wyze web portal. We reached out to Wyze for details, and a representative characterized the incident as small in scope, saying they “believe no more than 10 users were affected.” Other than a post to its user-to-user online forum, Wyze Communities, and communication to those it says were affected, the company has not reached out to Wyze customers, nor has it provided meaningful details about the incident.
