This is the best summary I could come up with:


Some Wyze security camera owners reported Friday that they were unexpectedly able to see webcam feeds that weren’t theirs, meaning that they were unintentionally able to see inside of other people’s houses.

A Wyze customer support agent confirmed to The Verge that this was indeed happening.

“Went to check on my cameras and they are all gone be replaced with a new one... and this isn’t mine!” wrote one user.

Each thread has comments from other Reddit users reporting similar issues.

“While we work to get this resolved, Wyze Web View functionality may be limited or unavailable,” they told me.

Wyze’s PR team didn’t immediately reply to an emailed request for comment.
