Seedy site allows peeping into 73000 security cams, some in bedrooms

[Katzenfreund]

Security cameras all over the world still using default passwords allow hacker access. Some are in bedrooms. And a seedy site makes them all viewable on the open web. You can select country etc.

Or so the story goes... The problem is that they don't seem to work for me. I just get a blank icon. Anybody getting some success?

Interesting, but all streams seem to proxied through there server & maybe the bandwidth is maxed out or something, anyway it doesn't work very well but streams load (slowly)

Yes, it seems that everyone's testing it now, overloading the cams.

Not everyone.
