Don't see that as a problem with a certain camera manufacture but rather peoples own negligence from not changing the factory password. That can happen on any camera which was noted. Like the article said, you wouldn't leave your front door unlocked would you?

Did I miss it or did they list the URL for the site?

Anyone have the address?

Another tip is change the default camera port from 80 and change password.

I want to make sure mine aren't hacked too. Doubt it but you never know.

The URL to the article is in the post if that is what you're asking for.

If someone is able to hack mine they have way to much time on their hands since it is already public for one, and two my admin console is encrypted so good luck accessing it outside my network.

Looks like it crashed or got removed offline.

Yes I would/do if I am just going out for a short while , but not overnight.

I read the article.

I was wanting to see all the cameras on the Russian website so I was looking for that url.

Link is in this article but with your slow modem good luck.

I had seen the website the other night, but the connection was so pathetically slow, I couldn't watch anything. However I could see stills showing what the camera is pointing at. Some are security, others the yard and others pointing right at the master bed!?  There also didn't seem like a good way to search, so you would have to scroll through them 10 on a page - one page at a time to see all 3,000+ cams.
