"Privacy Breach: Wyze Cameras Exposed 13,000 Customers' Homes to Strangers"

A glitch in Wyze's system caused 13,000 customers to see each other's camera footage due to an outage at Amazon Web Services, with some users even able to view video footage. This is not the first security crisis for Wyze, as a similar problem occurred in 2023 and the company previously ignored a critical flaw in its security cameras for three years. Wyze has apologized to users and attributed the issue to a third-party caching client library that experienced unprecedented load conditions.
