It says in the article: " apparently without their owners' knowledge."
I think people just plug these cameras into their networkd or on their PC for their own use and don't realize that Google is going to index them so anyone can do a search for them.

Some of these cameras are pointing outside, some in offices and some look like classroms.

I don't these were all made to be public.

The Axis cameras have a network jack in them so you can just plug it into a hub or switch and access it remotely.
I think some people just plugged them in and left it at that. Others I accessed were password protected.

Some of the cameras that can be accessed through Google searches are personal webcams attached to people's home PCs.

can u get some cams for birmingham uk thanks
