Not surprised, many of these vendors are doing crazy things, insane defaults, broken security, hardcoded values. Security is not a priority, I get that, but at the very least some baseline check would be nice (no hardcoded credentials for starting)

As they say: in IoT the S stands for security.

There’s some irony to security not being a priority for security cameras. Different kind of security I know, but still.

		There's also some irony in people happily ignoring that so many of these products live-stream the inside view of their homes and offices to some foreign corporate cloud - and in many Chinese security cameras, a state-backed corporation's cloud. Because, wow, it really is convenient.

How can there be a baseline check when you operate by getting the most inexperienced cheapest person possible to do the work?
