This site popped up recently a couple days ago.
View net surveillance online cameras
It's a Russian site that basically identifies thousands of security cameras that were set up without changing the default username and password. As a result, anyone can view the streams from these cameras, and ironically something that is supposed to be providing users security has become a big security risk without their knowledge.
It's probably only a matter of time before this gets shut down somehow, but it's pretty alarming to say the least. The site even goes as far as post the exact Google Maps coordinates that the camera is located at. What's really messed up is some of these cameras are pointing at babies cribs.
If you are running a security camera in your home and it's connected to the internet, you may want to make sure you customize the login information on it. Make sure that you change the password to a strong one.
