>Plug-in software poses risks
微信回應'朋友圈改定位'
According to media reports, users can change the actual location shared in WeChat Moments by buying a service available on some e-commerce platforms for as low as couple of yuan to dozens of yuan.
近日有媒體爆料稱，微信用戶只需要在某些電商平臺花費低至幾元到幾十元不等的價格，即可買到"朋友圈改定位"的服務。
The news sparked a lot of discussions online, with many criticizing the vanity of buyers of this service. Some users voiced concerns about the risks of using such a service.
該消息在網上引發(fā)了大量討論，許多人批評購買此服務的買家虛榮，一些人表達了對使用此服務存在風險的擔心。
An investigation by Beijing Youth Daily found that the service is still available on e-commerce platforms, but sellers have to be authorized to remotely log in to the buyer's WeChat account to change the GPS location with a plug-in.
《北京青年報》的一項調查顯示，此項服務目前仍在電商平臺上有售，但是需要買家授權賣家使用自己的微信賬號登錄，通過外掛軟件改變GPS定位。
WeChat staff said that using plug-in software poses privacy and property security risks.
微信團隊表示使用外掛軟件存在隱私和財產安全風險。
After gaining authorization through remote login, one can obtain the user's personal information and even implant trojans or viruses in the system, causing privacy leaks and loss of money.
在獲得遠程登錄授權后，不僅用戶的個人信息可以被獲取，木馬或者其他病毒甚至也可以被植入系統中，造成隱私泄露以及財產損失。
WeChat's public relations team said on Thursday the technical department has launched a probe into the issue. WeChat was not aware of the existence of the fake location service and has been cracking down on the use of plug-ins, the team said.
微信公關團隊10日表示，技術部門正在調查此事，微信此前對虛假定位服務的存在并不知情，且一直以來致力于打擊外掛軟件的使用。
As of the first half of 2019, WeChat has banned about one million accounts using plug-ins temporarily or permanently.
截至2019上半年，微信共對約100萬個明確使用外掛的帳號進行了短期或永久限制處理。
