Hackers Exploit Home Cameras, Sell Footage Overseas

Four individuals in South Korea have been arrested for hacking into over 120,000 home and business IP cameras, exploiting vulnerabilities often by using simple passwords. They created sexually exploitative materials for an overseas website, with one suspect alone responsible for 62% of the videos posted in the past year. Authorities are working to block the illegal website, notify victims, and help them change passwords and delete content. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
