Where does the mysterious camera come from?
You might wonder where these videos come from? Why would anyone connect them to the internet? In fact, there is no "unspeakable" secret here. Most of them are security surveillance images installed at the tops of some buildings, parks, and even at home, just connected to the Internet. In this way, users responsible for managing these cameras can monitor remotely.
For example, install a camera at home, and you can check the condition of your home in the office during working hours, whether there are thieves patronizing you, etc. It’s like cameras are installed on major sections of roads in some major cities in China to monitor urban traffic congestion. Therefore, no shocking secret can be found from it. It is good to satisfy our curiosity or to see the scenery in foreign countries.
