Open Security Cameras
« on: August 14, 2013, 11:19:17 AM »
Earlier this year, Liz Darwin started collecting open security cameras and posting them to a web site for us.  People have done this before, even on these forums, but the difference is that now these security cameras are cheap enough for regular people to have in their homes.  I'm going to post the cams that are still working from her secret page and maybe we can discuss some ways to identify the cams and do some kind of pranks to them.

We can also find open cams on these websites:

http://www.opentopia.com/
http://www.baladacam.com/cams/
http://www.webcamsmania.com/
http://downloads.trendnet.com/

A few cams I've managed to track down the owners phone numbers by calling their internet provider and getting it from their IP address, but that's usually pretty hard to do unless it's Comcast.  We had a cam for an old couple in their kitchen and would watch them have breakfast each morning until I called them and asked them to change the channel on the TV.  They immediately walked over to their cam and unplugged it and then changed their phone number.  I did the same to some other guy, but he was more accepting of being called by a weird stranger.

Anyway, I'd love to get some more interesting cams and get the phone numbers from them and maybe do some pranks.  Pranks where we DON'T say creepy things to a deaf 2-year-old like these people did:

My old list is mostly dead... that sucks.. use to have a pretty cool one inside an old chinese woman's house. You could move it around and one day as I moved it she looked up at me and smiled!

Jesus Fucking Christ! Are you an idiot or just trying to be funny?

That's crazy! I can't believe people are stupid enough to put video cameras in their homes! Don't they ever get the urge to do illegal things in the privacy of their own home--ripping tags off of matresses, etc.?
Hopefully a few prank calls will be enough to put an end to the insanity.
You'll be doing a real public service, letting people know how stupid they are and how they can been seen by anyone on the web.

This one is cool.  I moved it away from the plants it was watching and there's an old guy taking a nap on the couch with his dogs.  I've been moving it up and down a bunch, hoping the noise (if there is any) will wake him.

I think most of the people in their homes just never consider that outsiders can find them.  They don't understand that there are weirdos like us searching for open cams.  Maybe they think of an IP address like an unlisted phone number - their iPhone knows how to connect to it, but how would anybody else?

Hey guys so i came across this one
http://www.opentopia.com/webcam/16368?viewmode=livevideo

its a PC repair store called Friendly Computers in Georgetown, Texas.
The number is (512) 931-0303  owner's name is Bill

Even though its a computer store nobody seems aware that they are being watched on the cam. They also have a bunch of dogs roaming around the store for some reason.

I already spent like 45 minutes on the phone with them getting them to wheel that little purple car around and taking apart every wireless device in the store to try and find batteries for it (i told them i'd be willing to pay as much as 5,000 dollars for the rc car)

The lady i spoke to was quite perplexed that i could see her, i told her i was sitting in my car in the parking lot with a manilla envelope containing 5,000 dollars and my daughter in the backseat, watching through the front windows. That seemed to explain things for her.

i was eventually able convince her to push it out the door and around the parking lot (so that i wouldnt have to come inside with the dogs), looking for our car that wasnt there. People were seeing this confused lady pushing a toy car around in a parking lot with a phone against her ear and coming up and asking if everything was okay. It was pretty funny.

oh also these guys seem to have forgotten that they have an advertised live cam feed, have given them a few calls too
