- jaclaz 4y agoMore people than you might think. The whole idea of shodan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shodan_(website) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shodan_(website) would be unneeded if people avoided that (but it is so convenient), the CNN article is old (2013), but gives some good examples: https://money.cnn.com/gallery/technology/security/2013/05/01/shodan-most-dangerous-internet-searches/ https://money.cnn.com/gallery/technology/security/2013/05/01... and I wouldn't be so sure about many people having learned that every time you provide some means of remote access you are introducing a (huge) vulnerability.
