Watch Live Home Security Webcams and Business Webcams Easily Found By a Simple Search Thanks To Google.com 95 Links to Live Security Breached Private Webcams Included in this article.
I will not make a long and boring article for this matter but I will get straight to the heart of the matter.
I did a simple search on Google.com and came up with a ton of results. I clicked through the results only to find people's webcam feeds showing up live in my browser. For some reason the webcams did not show live in Chrome but worked just fine in other browsers like Firefox .
I found myself seeing people's living rooms, bedrooms, offices and more. Even found some cameras that people had planted in hidden spots to catch people snooping around in the act. All these links are public and the owners of these cameras have no idea that the world can be watching them at any time . The thing that was most disturbing was the cameras in children's bedrooms that were found in search results just as easily as the others.
A list of 95 WORKING webcam links with a description of what the cam's contain was found at http://pastebin.com/y5S2Mad3
Warning, this may disturb you if you are not prepared for a reality check on just how real this issue is.
This is a serious privacy issue and back in February of this year, some media had covered this matter in a few stories discussing the known issue with how simple it is for anyone to find access to people's webcams that they believe are private and secure like this article for example, http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/managing-infosec/new-google-hack-exposes-internal-home-cameras-50298
Since then, it seems that this major security flaw has been tossed under the rug.
What is your opinion on this matter. Make sure to SHARE this with as many people as possible and spread the word in case your friends or family use such webcam's to monitor private matters in their home or office .

cctv over IP, not such a good idea when incorrectly implemented. For Shame!
But makes possible good entertainment!
+Al Ebnereza Did you check out the 95 Cams listed? They are all valid and enough to make the masses get very uncomfortable…
I'm at work and didn't wanna open pastebin here, but yeah I looked into a few google searches and VOILA! hah!! Hilarious!
+Al Ebnereza As important and controversial this article I wrote is, you will notice, that the majority of Google+ users are completely clueless and will not even look at this long enough to remember the first three words. Those however are the same people I and others sit back and are able to watch them in the privacy and imagined comfort of their unsecured homes. While they stare at animated gifs and photos of what the iphone5 may look like.
Exactly man. G+ is riddled with TL;DR people with short attention spans. But ya know… the world is full of that, what can we do? heh.
Last week I watched a video from a recent infosec conference on this very subject.
Mine works in Chrome..
