Feeds from an extensive network of home security cameras have been breached, and videos, including scenes from children's bedrooms, are being watched and linked to online. "Someone caught a guy getting naked in Denmark," noted one blogger. Another remarked: "Baby spotted. I feel like a pedophile watching this." Because of a security vulnerability in the Trendnet software, savvy web users can get access to live home footage without a password, reports the BBC.
The California-based Trendnet company—whose motto is "networks that people trust"—is scrambling to release software updates to fix the problem. Thousands of cameras may be affected, and the company has known about the issue for weeks, a spokesman admitted the the BBC. A blogger shared a way to breach the system in early January. Others who checked out the tip were quickly sharing information about hundreds of cameras as well as real-time feeds. (More security cameras stories.)
