Google Is Your Friend (sort of)

There's a website that we discovered over a year ago (though the site itself it much older) that has list of strings you can enter into a particular search engine to bring up a list of unsecured 'security' cameras that you can tap into. Its so easy.

How does it work? Well, with the Big G being as complex as it is, it accepts a bunch of special syntax when you search that lets you control the results you get back from it. Alot of people know the simple ones like using + and "" etc, but theres a whole bunch of them for various things. This time we're using the inurl argument that tells G to search for your string only in the url of the site. The rest is obvious.

Some of these are really good in that they can be controlled remotely, and the best ones have a guy sitting at the nerve centre with hardware controls as well. Have fun with these.
