>"End of" what? You couldn't be more wrong! Plus my phrase uses incorrect English.

Seems kinda ironic to me that you go ballistic about that bit of English usage. Given your copious use of CAPITAL LETTERS and random cussing which make your rant way more credible. Not.

Not that I find any great amount of actual useful info in your post either.

I would argue that you may need (or at least want) to access a security camera remotely in many cases. That's, hum, one of their basic use cases, at least for home gear. How exactly that is to be carried out, how to protect it with your router, what the safety measures are and what is best practice, many would benefit from knowing.

Maybe it's as simple as picking the right vendor (one that patches their gear) and installing those patches.

Maybe there is no way to actually do it, but I certainly wouldn't take _your_ word for it. Or the equally douchy's "once you've become educated enough" AC. No wonder our profession is public-perception-challenged.

Twat!
