Dude, he just released another one where they accessed dozens of real, currently in use cameras. They didn't even "hack" them, they just used a search engine to find publicly exposed cameras, opened their unsecured internal web panel, and could download and view any footage over the past 31 days, including from the new face tracking cameras that zoom in and pan on people's unsuspecting faces as they walk by.
Truly wild.
Reading flock their own response about their security and recording it via one of their active and installed cameras was fucking great. I mean, it was nightmare shit, but at a certain point, you have to appreciate the irony.
My own mother (pensioner) sent me the video asking "is this real?" But could only follow the first minutes of it.
I lol'd at that part and had to explain the brilliance of it. Then she lol'd, too.
It's nice to share in the shadows humor, as a family, while we feel our liberties erode.
Yeah he is working with 404 media
All that and they can't catch real criminals, gotta harass "illegals" and law abiding citizens for speeding a little.
And stalk women!
This only serves to justify my secret low key paranoia that my like is like The Truman Show... I wish my parents were better about limiting some of the movies I was allowed to watch growing up... Arachnophobia was another lasting damage banger...
