Wireless surveillance cameras at DNC
DNC Cops don't get security. (Via Boing Boing)
A bunch of security cameras in Boston at the Democratic National Convention are nothing more than wireless web-cams running on 802.11b. That seems smart. Didn't the cops figure out that there are all these geeky bloggers there?
So... what happens when someone nukes their burrito? Or an AP in an apartment switches to the channel the cameras are using? This isn't even malicious. Give Seth a PowerBook and a GPS card and he could map the cameras, their channels and access points in a few hours.
I wonder if they're using WEP or WPA?
