Snow Day Predictor using our webcams?
CNYWeather:
I came across this site http://snowdaypredictor.com/
It's got my backyard webcam as the background when I view it using some kind of location code.
I think they're using it from Earthcam by the description of the cam.
And looking at the view source code, I cant see where its coming from.
They've got no backlinks to my site. Just wondering if anyone else's cam is getting
used like this and if so did you block it and how?
Jáchym:
Thats ridiculous!
Ive seen this page mentioned here as well today:

Jáchym:
Could you post a link to the page which uses your image? I could try to inspect the console to see where it is fetching the data from.
Maumelle Weather:
Looks like its being hosted on Amazon.com, and I'm guessing they didn't ask permission to use anyone's camera.
