Ask HN: Are these videos from hacked IoT devices?
- Cider9986 5mo agohttps://www.youtube.com/@FAMS-l1x/videos https://www.youtube.com/@FAMS-l1x/videos If not, what are they? I am referring to the videos with IMG and then 4 numbers in them. They are various scenes of asian families doing things in their houses.
- uberman 5mo agoMany videos now contain everyday video backdrops. I saw one the other day that was just chickens wandering around. I'm sure they are there to prevent copywrite bots from discovering IP theft. That is just my best guess though.
- GL26 5mo agoPossible that the videos themselves are from hacked iot devices, or the protocol transfering data going from the camera towards the servers might not be encrypted so someone intercepts their data :( But wandering why in the world would someone point a camera at families ?
