Google Street View grabbed more than you know

A Storm is Coming

Street view grabbed ALL wi-fi enabled hardware MAC addresses and made that data available for location services

What does THAT mean?

It means that your ipod, ipad and iphone location gave up your home address even if you don't use a wi-fi computer network

It also means that ALL wi-fi enabled video cameras no longer only give complete strangers access to the what they see over the Internet but you can now locate each and every video camera within a couple hundred feet for surveillance purposes

This story never discussed video cameras, but the Mac Addresses of ALL wi-fi enabled devices were swept up by Google Street View and tagged with location information so the point is valid

You can view other peoples unprotected cameras around the Globe right now using Google Search >

:P

Oh...and remember the TDL-4 BotNet?

(Do some research)

Well then you should know that your ENCRYPTED wi-fi camera is wide open

The Gov't could get a list of all your MAC addresses and encryption keys if were are using XP-SP3, Vista or Windows 7 with an Internet connection, and now the "Other" Bad guys can do the same with their SuperBots!
