A hacking group that has yet to identify itself found and stole more than 3 TB of private video from around the world — mainly collected from Singapore — and shared it on porn sites, according to reports from local media like The New Paper.

Case in point: Amazon-owned Ring, which faced a slew of security scandals in the last year or so. Hackers have harassed people using Ring cameras; users’ passwords have leaked on the dark web; and the system’s Android app was found to have been letting Facebook and other third parties track users.

You can only repeat it over and over again: do not put spying devices into your house.
