A mother in Houston, Texas woke up one morning to pretty much every parent's worst-case scenario. 。

As it turned out, the security cameras she'd installed in her daughter's room to keep them safe had been hacked and the footage had been uploaded on the internet to livestream. "They're in my house. People are watching my kids in their home, dressing, sleeping, playing," Jennifer said. 。SEE ALSO:Photo reveals that even Mark Zuckerberg puts tape over his webcam。
Shelby Ivie, another mother who lives in Oregon, stumbled upon the feed by accident last weekend. Ivie and her sons were looking at live satellite images of Earth to find places to take their next vacation when they found a free app called Live Camera Viewer. After looking at the app, they eventually came across what appeared to be a livestream of a little girl's room in Houston.。
Ivie said she immediately reached out on Facebook to mothers' groups in the area and the post started to share rapidly. Within hours, the post had reached Jennifer's friend who got in touch with her.。Credit: facebook。

has reported previously, security cameras are (ironically) extremely vulnerable to exposure, because they use relatively generic IP addresses or public-facing websites. In that scenario, you'd only need a username and password to see or control the cameras.。 A few websites like Insecam have taken advantage of this security flaw and offer more than 73,000 different streams of vision from across the country.。Your laptop webcam also isn't safe from being compromised. Hackers can get to them through malware -- if you click a bad link or file and use code to turn on your webcam -- possibly even disabling the camera's LED light, so you wouldn't know it's on. This is one reason experts among the likes of Mark Zuckerberg put tape over their webcams. 。
"A person has a much greater chance of being hacked than becoming the victim of a street crime," Charlotte Laws, a revenge porn activist and former Los Angeles County Commissioner, said in an email to 。

. "The laws have not kept up with technology, and law enforcement are often not equipped to track down perpetrators and adequately assist victims. The fact that a hacker may be overseas decreases the chances of putting him or her behind bars... or makes it full-on impossible." 。
As Laws adds, however, there can be legal recourse for this if the hacker is revealed and lives in the United States. Hacking is a federal crime, and can necessitate involvement by the FBI.。
