The last thread I saw on this ended in 2016.
- Here we post method to hack any computer or pc by their ip address.For getting ip address of victim’s computer we also post how to get victim’s ip address online.By ip address you can access their full computer system, their all files and folders, photos,videos and any other files stored in their hard disk by our little and easy tutorials.
- I mean, technically anything can be hacked eventually. It is only a matter of how easy it is to do so. Many attempts to hack the cameras of various electronics have almost always ended with success, but they mostly required naive.
I received what can only be described as a threatening email claiming a virus had been implanted and my camera had been hacked. The claim made was pretty weird, the language was non-native english (and not related to being from Belgium as the writer claimed; the email address country code was Hungary, surely nothing valid about any of it), and no mention was made of what my OS was, or anything specific to the machine or device of mine said to have been hacked.
In your example that we can't identify an attacker using a wifi. Actually, you can get an idea of who is who by observing people behavior. Most public area in the world have camera. Let's say you are in a Starbuck coffee shop. This is a technique seen in malware that can tap into a stream being used for FaceTime, Skype, or local recording, so the camera, mic, or both are already active when the surveillance starts.
Of course **** sites were mentioned, they claimed to have accessed my address book, etc, and bitcoin was demanded. Their threat was to send a video out to my address book contents.
It most resembled what I have heard about ransomware emails. Surely I could have done something in front of my camera that would be embarrassing at some point or points, who can be sure, especially with the advent of sw methodology to edit faces onto other bodies, etc.
One odd thing was that the email address used to reach me is not one I use many places. We have our own domain and make up unique addresses for leaving at sites, etc.
Does the light come on with any activation of apple/mac cameras, or can that be circumvented?
Has anyone heard of an iPad, iPhone or Macbook camera hack, recently? If it is something possible on any Apple devices then I'll have to use tape on my camera when orgies are going on, or I'll have to cut back.

So we discontinued our Xfinity Home subscription (which isn't a statement against the service; we moved out of the Xfinity service area and into a Cox service area and opted not to install their home security package) several months ago. Of course I took down the Xfinity cameras before we moved, and they've been in storage since. Last night, I finally dug them out and set about getting them working -- without the touchscreen and security router that Xfinity had them set up for. This blog post is mostly so I will remember how I did it, because all the information is out there, but it's not all correct (for my cameras, at least).The problem, of course, is that when the cameras were paired to the Xfinity touchscreen/router/system, passwords were set to view the feeds, and to administer the cameras. It's possible to get the cameras onto another Wifi by pressing the reset button for a few seconds (putting it into a WPS pairing mode) and then pressing the WPS button on your router. But this is of no use if you don't know the passwords to get into the camera.
(First thing's first: use the power+ethernet dongle that you cleverly had the Xfinity tech leave you when he installed the cameras so that you can put them on your hardwired LAN. Do that now.)So, for the iCamera2 cameras, the information I found online says that the default username is 'administrator' and the default password is a blank password. This, obviously, didn't work with my camera because it was paired with the Xfinity system. Additionally, the firmware that was loaded onto the camera doesn't have a web UI by default. (But, if you have the password, you can enable it with a request to /adm/enable_ui.cgi.)
As an aside, I did try updating the firmware, thinking that might reset the password. I found a list of available firmware images in a comment on this blog post, which was a welcome find. I'll repeat his list here for convenience sake:

The online information also suggested that one should hold the reset button while applying power to the camera. This appears to put the camera into some kind of recovery mode where the power LED flashes rapidly. I was not able to see the camera perform any sort of initialization or DHCP request or anything, but eventually figured out that it had just assumed a

192.168.0.99 IP address. I was able to communicate with it on that address, but the only thing available seemed to be a firmware update page, from which I could upload new firmware images (and have them installed) but that was it.What I eventually worked out as the solution was to let the camera power on normally, then press and hold the reset button for some 30 seconds. I did not see any indications that this did anything, but it looks like this resets the camera into a setup mode where the touchscreen can pair it. After performing this step, I was able to access the camera using curl from my linux box:

Of course, at this point I went to the web UI to verify that the password I'd just set was working. And it was. Thinking about it now, I'm wondering if once reset this way, the web UI is not disabled anymore. If not (that is, if the web UI is disabled and browsing to the camera yields a 404 error), it can be re-enabled with:This was enough to get me into the camera's configuration UI and able to set up everything there. I will be repeating this with additional cameras later on, so I'll update this further if anything else becomes apparent. But, in case it helps anyone else, these were the steps I took and what I ended up with.
