Oh and you should really switch brands on diapers, your kid is getting rashes."

in reply to along_the_road • • •I’m sure my cameras are easily viewable by hackers.
Thats why I have one in the chicken coop and one in the yard to also check the chickens, and nowhere else.
If they want to watch awesome chicken footage, be my guest. Can’t say I’d even blame them, my ladies are awesome.
If I wanted actual security cameras, I’d self-host them.

in reply to along_the_road • • •About 16, 17 years ago, I was briefly obsessed with browsing freely accessible webcams on the Internet. Most were surveillance cameras outside of businesses (some even with motorized controls!) and it was fun to explore the world that way: I saw sunrises in the Arctic Circle, busy Asian city streets, lots of interesting everyday moments from around the globe. Just harmless fun, right?
However, two cameras I stumbled upon made me stop this entirely: One was from an office in Russia, a hidden camera placed under a desk shared by several young women wearing short skirts. The other (thus the connection to the title) was a camera inside someone's home, right above a baby sleeping in their crib. In fact, the entire house, every single room, was covered in cameras, all of them accessible to the world. I felt like the worst creep, even though I found both completely by accident.
