FBI, Homeland Security Warn About Webcams

The FBI and the Department of Homeland Security have issued a warning about webcams. In one of their regular security advisories, Homeland Security and the FBI urge local, state, and federal agencies -- and the private sector -- to review what's available on webcams that transmit pictures of their facilities.

The advisory was sent after an Islamic extremist Web site posted an item entitled "You Can Spy on the Enemies."

The site provided a link to a live webcam at a regional airport in Hagerstown, Md., which allowed users to control the camera and zoom in on the terminal and cargo areas.

The webcam was disabled after airport officials were notified of the posting.

The security advisory urges government agencies and people in the private sector who have webcams to review the shots that are being transmitted.

Internet search engines provide a link to a remote-controllable camera at the Hagerstown airport, but the links no longer work.

An airport official told a local news station, "There are no working webcams at the airport available to the public."

Flock

This is an interesting new web browser I found. I usually use firefox with lots of extensions. But this is Flickr compatible (and MANY more social online sites), it has photo drag and drop, flickr streams, and some other visually cool stuff. I have not used it very long but its worth checking out. It is exactly like firefox (essentially a modified version), but with - photo, blog, news, and other social stuff. www.flock.com .
