Global search engine giant Google is priceless. We use it on a more
than daily basis for all our search needs. Whether you're looking for
that fancy word or the location of a good restaurant, you'll get
everything with Google search and more. Enough on the good part. Did you
know Google has a dark side too? Did you know Google can be used to
gain access to confidential information or download free music? Here's
how...
1.Hacking Security Cameras!
You might have noticed many security cameras monitoring places like parking lots, college campus, road traffic etc (and yes, some of them work!). Did you know you can use Google to hack into these cameras to view images captured by these cameras in real time. How do you do it? Well simply open the Google search box and type in the following query:
inurl:”viewerframe?mode=motion”
You will get a search result that will give you access to live cameras with full controls (move the camera in all the four directions, perform zoom in and zoom out). The above mentioned query usually gives access to cameras with less refresh rate. In case you're looking for faster refresh rates:
intitle:”Live View / – AXIS”
2.Hacking Personal and Confidential Documents!
You can access an email repository containing personal and confidential documents (CVs for instance) using Google. Simply open the Google search box and type in the following query:
intitle:”curriculum vitae” “phone * * *” “address *” “e-mail”
To access a list of excel documents which contains contact details including email addresses of people:
filetype:xls inurl:”email.xls”
To access documents potentially containing information on bank accounts, financial summaries and credit card numbers:
intitle:index.of finances.xls
3.Gaining Access to Free Stuffs!
If you're looking to download free music, simply enter the following query on Google search box and hit enter:
“?intitle:index.of?mp3 artist name“
If you're looking to download free ebooks:
“?intitle:index.of?pdf book name“
