I know it's not 100% the same, but there's a website that gives you access to insecure webcams and has been for ages!

http://www.insecam.org/

Obviously these aren't hacked as per the article

just looking around randomly and it's weird how many of them are private property.

Why is it weird? People get cameras to protect their private property?

sure but not securing them in their own network somehow?

There are driveways, front porches, some sort of office somewhere and even someones 3d printer all with rough coordinates and that's without actually diving deeper into all of this.

People are lazy and ignorant to the lack of security in the products they buy.

Damn, that website almost has some of everything.

I saw a building that looked like it was waiting to be boarded up. There were some streams with beautiful scenery. There was an official looking meeting room in Greece for, and I even found a stream of a train table!
