Shodan: The scariest search engine on the Internet
http://j.mp/ZdEe9c (CNN)
"Shodan navigates the Internet's back channels. It's a kind of "dark"
Google, looking for the servers, webcams, printers, routers and all
the other stuff that is connected to and makes up the Internet.
(Shodan's site was slow to load Monday following the publication of
this story.) Shodan runs 24/7 and collects information on about 500
million connected devices and services each month."
