Lib-windowswap

Do you know WindowSwap ? It's this website that started during the pandemic, where people share videos of whats happening around their window.

This repo does the same thing, except that it's free and it casts those videos to your chromecast (or compatible player).

Huge security and privacy issue

If you take a look at the sources https://www.window-swap.com/main.77d8f9088b0c46e986db.js you can find all the datas this website uses (the videos) but here's the problem...

It also lists the user's webcam location and their email. Very useful for burglars and marketers. You can also find the dump here : lib/feeds.js STARTING LINE 686

What can I do about it ?

From their T&C available here https://docs.google.com/document/d/17Ods6fr6qZohNAAwQEIkQzitbJJZaVSOqls8rdMfmcI/edit?usp=sharing
