"Wirecutter staff put this to the test using a decommissioned Google Nest Cam Indoor device and found they could, indeed, view a "series of still images snapped every several seconds" on that cam. The cam in question had been signed up to a Nest Aware account and linked to a Wink smart-home hub. Even though the Nest instructions for factory resetting the device were followed and there was no access to the live stream using either the desktop or mobile app, nor indeed the Wink app as the camera was no longer online, things got creepy when the Wirecutter reporter created a new Nest account on a new Android device. "Going back to our Wink app," the report states, "we were also able to view a stream of still images from the Nest cam, despite it being associated with a new Nest account.""
