New from us at Story Lab: "We hacked a robot vacuum — and could watch live through its camera"
The largest home robotics company in the world has failed to fix security issues with its robot vacuums despite being warned about them last year.
Without even entering the building, we were able to silently take photos of the (consenting) owner of a device made by Chinese giant Ecovacs.
And then things got even creepier.
(Excellent work on this @jules and the whole team)
