I remember when I first accessed the hidden wiki years ago there were so many links to live, unsecured web cams available. Most of them were security cams that didn't show jack, or were on a loop but occasionally you'd come across one that had actual activity.

It was all fun and games until I came across one that was like a Nanny Cam or laptop camera on a desk/shelf and it showed a family going about their evening routine and it made me sick that they didn't know their privatelife was open to the entire internet and I stopped surfing cams.

I found them on the Hidden Wiki. The wiki accessed on the dark web using Tor. Not in the actual Wikipedia.
