Home Security Hacking 


You may know, we started providing our video content to our subscribers only,but there's a story that’s been creeping me out and I felt as many people as possible should be warned.  Be sure to checkout our video on Youtube at:

Have you all heard about men hacking into baby monitors, security cameras, and home alarms such as Ring, Nest, etc?  


Well, I recently read a story about a mom that setup a ring camera in her 8 year old daughters bedroom for peace of mind. A man hacked into the camera and started harassing the child.  Based on the video playback from the camera, he would try to convince the child to misbehave,  using racial slurs, calling himself Santa Claus-just overall disturbing behavior.  


In another instance, a man hacked into a family's home alarm and tripped the siren and then threatened the family repeatedly by speaking to them through the intercom and made ransom demands. 


Is it safe anywhere and how much of our privacy have we given up? That’s the question I’ve been asking myself for a while and now I’m thinking twice about camera’s inside my home.  


How can you keep your Camera’s and try to hack proof it.  Here are a few tips. 


  1. Keep your firmware up to date
  2. Change your password to something long, complicated. Be sure it’s not something identifiable like your birthday. 
  3. Setup a password manager 
  4.  Setup two factor authentication on your camera.  Not all cameras offer 2 factor authentication, but a few that do are Ring, Amazon, and Nest.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
