Scary, but not exactly new information.

I love my monitor – it has a screen. No wifi so no hackers I’m assuming and one less thing to look at my phone for.

We have an old school monitor that was given to us but we’ve never needed it. Mum always told me you can hear them, and she’s right. Money saved through mother instinct.

Creepy. I never used a monitor. I think they’re unsafe for a whole bunch of other reasons.

wow that is scary and creepy. I wondered where the article was going with that title! – I am glad that the baby is safe and hope the parents resort back to the traditional style monitors where you just hear bub in the bed.

That’s creepy ! Wouldn’t want to have a baby monitor with internet applications acessed through home wi-fi at home.

I am glad that I never used thee things. I did buy one for my son with his first child, he was glad it was a sound one only and could not see things. That was not because of hacking but from friends who said that they can be worrying as you see things that can scare them.

Thank goodness mine is just a simple one- no internet access needed. That’s scary!

  I had the same one as you and I loved it.

I love my baby monitor, no apps, just a camera and a parent monitor. Keep it simple

Unfortunately, the more advanced technology becomes, the easier it becomes for cyber thieves to steal or spy … photos, identities, personal details …. it has become increasingly dangerous!

I think technology is just becoming too advanced. A good old fashioned baby monitor with no apps is all you need and they can come with video too without having wifi, etc.

Now a days we have to be on guard all the time.
Scary stuff.

i have heard of people being able to do this to the monitors. But i wonder if hers was motion activated so that it would track her around the room? smart tech

It sounds very scary when you think about it!

The internet can leave a lot of people vulnerable. That’s pretty scary.

I wouldn’t feel very comfortable at all using such an app!

  I am with you – no thanks!

This actually very creepy and surely the police should investigate?
