Security cameras use MJPEG (Motion JPEG), which works quite similarly to animated GIFs.

They're very easy to find as most vendors have a URL pattern. For example, here're a bunch of public security cameras made by Axis: https://www.google.com/#output=search&q=inurl:axis-cgi%2...

you're probably thinking about this (which now 404s): http://cryptogasm.com/webcams/

Don't know why it was taken down. Here is the old thread : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5543465
