I'm astounded at the ignorance and stupidity of the author of this article.

If a device is transmitting a signal, then that signal can be recieved.

It's so simple. Maybe too simple?

These wireless cameras are guilty of severe false advertising anyway.

I bought one of these wireless cameras and still cannot fins a single one of those beautiful girls on my monitor like in the ubuquitous pop-up ads.

Do you think you are protecting the family by doing this?

"I can only imagine driving around the Bay Area with one of these," said Aviel D. Rubin, a security researcher at AT&T Labs who was along for the ride.

I've been making nanny cams for 8 years, never a customer call me to complain about someone picking up their signal & vice versa. The signal is not strong enough to penetrate through outer wall of a house and the range is not so much determined by the antenna on the receiver rather on the transmitter.
Even if someone picks up the signal, they are got to be pretty stupid to beak in to a house full of security cameras.
If you still don't feel safe? just unplug the camera when you are not using.
Who ever wrote the article did not research too much, rather went on with his or her assumptions. Why make insecure poeple more insecure?

We've actually used the X10 cams as a starter security system. We are upgrading to a wired system shortly, simply because of better quality images. We used the cameras to track a delinquent. The payoff came within a month when my neighbors car windows got shot out with a BB gun, my wife reviewed the images and we had the two kids carrying around the gun. My neighbor confronted the family of the guilty parties. When the parents tried the "my kids wouldn't do that" they said "It's on tape..." The $800 repair took place that week. Shortly thereafter, ALL delinquent activity ceased in our neighborhood.

Back at the Staples store in Madison, employees said they did not know that they were being watched by security monitors.

If I found that my boss was monitoring me without telling me first, my resignation would leave him stretched out on the floor, unconcious.

I am not a slave and my employer does not have unlimited rights over me.
