When you bring a security camera into your home, there’s an inherent risk of it being compromised. There’s always that scary possibility of someone watching you behind the camera without you ever knowing it, whether it’s for their own enjoyment or other nefarious reasons.
Over the weekend, security camera maker Wyze blamed a glitch with its AWS cloud computing partner that allowed people to view footage from other Wyze cameras.

Roughly 13,000 Wyze users were affected for several hours, which makes a stinging point that it can happen unexpectedly.
