We Liked to Watch
The Muni security camera site may have gotten locked away, but we can still remember those few glorious few hours of spying which we were able to enjoy. In case you missed it, a collection of Muni cameras were caught facing the internet, and a leaked password opened the site up for us all to enjoy ... until someone changed the login details. Oh well. At any rate, please enjoy the time-lapse video that we created by taking and animating a series of automated screengrabs. (Or you can also watch a slightly slower, more gradual version.) Note the train that gets stuck in the bottom middle monitor for a half hour around 10:15 -- that's the only highlight we were able to catch before the site booted us out around 1pm.


Embedded video says "video no longer available". Link goes to video that can't be viewed because it's set to private.
I'm glad MattyMatt chooses to use his forces for good. I shudder to think what would happen if he went over to the dark side.
