I have an old ass webcam that only connects by a USB, and I haven't connected to my computer in an eternity. The only other camera is on my phone, and I make sure it is never pointing at anything I don't want people to see if it was hacked.

This shit is fucking scary.

I don't even understand why you would have them anywhere inside. I have a few outside to warn of movement and stuff outdoors and trigger alarms at certain times but I would never put them inside my house. Already having them outside triggers by paranoia about being watched.
