Any video feed that you don't control is a potential security leak. Besides the creepy voyeurism outlined in the article, there is huge potential for burglars case a house.
Many years ago there was a high end burglary crew working in the midwest. This was before home video was a thing but they had some kind of intelligence because they only hit homes that they had somehow cased. They hit a home where I was working, a small town of 8000. Left no clues. The FBI surmised that they were flying into small airports (unmanned, no tower) hooking up with someone on the ground, pulling the burglary and leaving by small plane. They got a lot of high dollar jewelry here. To my knowledge they were never caught. I always thought it was someone at an insurance company.
Video feeds in your home would make very easy for a bad actor to target you.
