Comment on Wyze security camera owners reported that they could briefly see feeds from cameras they didn’t own
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 months agoI don’t have any security cameras, but unless you have a whole bunch of computers at home, a LAN is what, 3 maybe 4 machines? Those could easily all be stolen by the person who breaks into the house with the cameras.
I don’t know what the solution here is because I sure wouldn’t trust the Internet as the solution.

A LAN could be zero machines. Point is IP addresses are not routable on the public internet.

That’s not really the point. The footage from the camera has to be stored somewhere. Either locally or remotely. If it’s remote, there’s a chance of it leaking. If it’s local, the machine it’s on could get stolen. So again, I don’t know what the solution is.

If you’re worried about physical theft then you’ll want to enable encryption on the storage drives.

I was just being a pedant about your definition of LAN. :)
For a non-pedantic definition, yours is fine.
