DJI’s Mavic Series of drones range from the high-end Mavic 3 with a 28x super zooming HD camera and 46 minutes of flight time to the lower end Mini 2 that only weighs half a pound, fits in the palm of your hand and can fly for 31 minutes. These pricey consumer drones make taking pictures for above with features like 4k video, quick and easy transfer of photos and videos to your smartphone, and the ability to zoom right into your neighbor’s window. Please don’t use these drones to zoom into your neighbor’s window.
¿Qué podría pasar si algo falla?
China-based drone maker DJI has a history of not being good when it comes to privacy and security. Researchers raised concerns in 2020 about vulnerabilities in the Android app that control some DJI consumer drones and reportedly collect large amounts of personal data. If that data were leaked, they warned, it could then be exploited by the Chinese government. Currently, many government entities, including the United States military and the Dutch Ministry of Defense ban the drones, while it seems the FBI and Dutch police still purchase these drones. It all seems quite messy and rather scary.
Owning an insecure flying camera could present some problems for civilians too. Reading the DJI privacy policy does raise some flags for us, as they do seem to collect a good deal of personal information and while they say they don’t sell it, they do say they might share it with third parties for a number of purposes, including advertising.
Then there is the other privacy concern surrounding all drones — using them to spy on people in their own homes or in public spaces from afar. The new Mavic 3 has a 28x super zoom lense that could let someone record video up close and personal from far away. That’s pretty scary.
So buyer beware. Having the potential for personal information on your phone to be leaked to unknown sources who might exploit it, yeah, that's a really bad thing. Uncertainty if these drones are secure, another bad thing. Using these drones to spy on unsuspecting people, a really bad thing. All in all, we’re worried these DJI Mavic drones come with *privacy not included.

In 2020, research groups Synacktiv and GRIMM claimed that the DJI GO 4 application can force updates on users without routing them through the Google Play Store. Given the access the application has — including users’ contacts, microphone, camera, geolocation — it could give DJI or third parties nearly full control of users’ phones. Hundreds of thousands of customers across the world use the app to pilot their rotor-powered, camera-mounted aircraft. In their response, the company claimed that researchers found a typical software concerns, with no evidence they have ever been exploited.
In the Netherlands, DJI drones were banned for military use because of security concerns, but they are still in use by the police force.
