Hackers Play “Every Breath You Take” Through Camera, Freak Out Owner
This is a good reason to make sure your web camera is secure. Someone hacked into a worker's unsecured IP camera and played the Police's "Every Breath You Take" though its speakers. Sample lyrics: "I'll be watching you."
The unidentified man handles it pretty well, all things considered, and calmly calls the camera company's tech support line. As he's on the phone with the IT worker, the music comes back on.
"That's really freaky, man," he says to the IT guy when informed he was hacked. "That's the song 'Somebody's watching you.' That's really funny. So somebody's looking?"
