Security camera flaw exposes video feeds on the Net
http://j.mp/wwLgKV (BBC)
"Feeds from thousands of Trendnet home security cameras have been
breached, allowing any web user to access live footage without needing
a password ... However, a spokesman told the BBC that "roughly 5%" of
purchasers had registered their cameras and it had not yet issued a
formal media release despite being aware of the problem for more than
three weeks. "We first became aware of this on 12 January," said Zak
Wood, Trendnet's director of global marketing."
