       | The short version:
       | 
       |  _For all parents connecting to a given nursery, they are given
       | the same username and password for the DVR. In the examples I
       | have been shown, the username is admin and the password is either
       | admin888 or nurserycam888._

       | Sigh.

       | Its the same people who shipped the "people counting" raspberry
       | pi system with the bruno mars mp3s in them.

       | First they try and report the security consultants to the police,
       | then they claim that they are too expensive to work with.
       | 
       | Then even more bizarrely they launch a halfarsed sock puppet
       | campaign using the CEO's wife's account.
       | 
       | Then they start publishing reviews on their own staff, including
       | private health info.

       | Just utterly bat shit insane

         | Hahaha what? Are you saying they paid these guys, then reported
         | them to the police, and then the police found a contract and
         | they just said "well they're too expensive!"
