The U.K. government is urging authorities in Moscow to shut down a Russian website that is streaming images from British webcams. Those images include baby monitors, bedroom cameras, and CCTV from gyms. “I’m very concerned about what this [website] shows and I want the Russians to take this down straight away… We now want to take very prompt action working with the Federal Trade Commission in the States to get this thing closed down,” said the U.K.’s information minister, Christopher Graham. “But the more important thing is to get the message out to consumers to take those security measures. If you don’t need remote access to a webcam, then switch off that function altogether.”
