They were probably using Eye-Fi SD cards. Didn't the cards send your data through a third-party server? I think they cards are now obsolete or unsupported.

Transcend make WiFi SD cards as well, which support direct connection, run Linux, and are rootable to do cool things like upload files via FTP to a user-controlled server: https://github.com/alejandroliu/sdwifi

Yeah, Eye-Fi cards are supposed to work with an app on your laptop or phone that uploads pictures to their servers. You can run your own server to pose as the app and intercept the pictures, though.

I don't know what specifically they used, but I believe it was before Eye-Fi
