Being able to access the camera remotely given the correct password is absolutely within the behaviour range that users are told about. It's the entire point of the product. Do they want remote access or not? If so, then it's the user's responsibility to provision that access appropriately. Passwords and 2-factor might be too complicated for some, but what else do we have?

>We have seen instances where a small number of Nest customers have re-used passwords that were previously exposed through breaches on other websites, and made public. None of these breaches involved Nest. This exposes these customers to other people using the credentials to log into their Nest account. Subtly, Nest did not actually claim that the attacker had a correct password. For all we know this instance was a breach.

  Of course they are not going to give specific details about a particular customer's security incidents in a public statement. And of course they can not publicly claim that they've never had a security breach because it's impossible to know that for sure. I'm not sure how they could make the statement any more specific than they already have.
