    I remember several years ago a popular list was circulating the internet with Google search queries in which you could actually hop onto the web applet of unsecured cameras, some of which a user could take control of. I just typed some of those old queries into Google hoping after several years the number would have dropped. Sadly I am seeing still hundreds of exposed cameras...:rolleyes: (Granted some now appear by design)
