  Where did all the cams go?  

On the afternoon of March 5th 2009 a message was sent to Purdue's security team list instructing the system administrators from every department to bring down the webcams in their networks for 24 hours. No explanation was given, but believing that a security incident may have been in progress I disabled this site as well. If someone was using the site for nefarious purposes I wanted to help put a stop to it.

I sent several emails asking for clarification and offering to help, with no response. After 24 hours a few, but not nearly all, of the cameras were restored. Forty eight hours later, with no explanation forthcoming, I have decided to restore the page.

I do not know if/when any of the missing cameras will return.



  Thanks

  Broken Webcams  

The page brokencams.py contains links to cameras around purdue which are not functioning for one reason or another. If you know who the proper administrator of one of these cameras is please notify them so they can restore it to working order. Please notify me also so that I can restore them to their rightful place on this page.
