You can get a cheap Wi-Fi enabled camera intended for sticking in your ear for less than $5.

@wdormann HOW ON EARTH is that hilarious shit available for only five bucks?

does it require a strange app? how does it work before I add this to my cart!

[gloriouscow@oldbytes.space]

@wdormann for a brief moment i wondered why you had a circuit board in your ear

[wdormann@infosec.exchange]

@f4grx
The cam is a Wi-Fi Access Point.

Yes, there's an app, but put it on an old phone you don't care about if you're paranoid.

[f4grx@chaos.social]

@wdormann oh

[wdormann@infosec.exchange]

@f4grx
Did you expect it to not use an app?

[f4grx@chaos.social]

@wdormann yes. being a wifi AP I expected it to serve a simple html page with a video stream player.

[wdormann@infosec.exchange]

@f4grx
For less than $5. OK.

[f4grx@chaos.social]

@wdormann Thats less work than building an app tbh.

@f4grx
You have a unreasonable expectation of skills from the masses.

@wdormann that sounds nice and all.
But nothing prepared me for this sentence when I visited the offer

[xethos@mastodon.xethos.net]

@wdormann Sure, but will it garble or make up numbers that aren't actually there like the iPhone will when it can't get a clear view

@f4grx @wdormann
Yeah, this or some standard RTMP video stream, like a wireless security camera.
