Security breaches on Internet connected cams & the cams cloud access are all too common.

If its an internet connected device, assume its not safe :rolleyes:
Even an internet connected car was found to have security holes that could be hacked into (and even give access to things like disable the brakes while someone was driving )
One brands Internet Connected TV's were found to be recording conversations and sending that to 3rd parties
Some home routers have security holes that never got patched , allowing access in .

1477451 2021-05-29 22:14:00 That's old news, these web-connected cameras get hacked all the time.

Full of holes and bugs and the companies (even big ones like D-Link) are lazy at fixing them.

I'll never use any of that IoT junk, far too many security risks, and 99% of them are completely unnecessary anyway.
WiFi light-bulbs? Really? You only need that if you're bedridden.
