What makes you certain this is what happened? How did the hacker know your password so that the cameras would connect? How do you know another node was setup? Also, where were the videos stored that were deleted? SDCard? Cloud? Either way, someone would need your Wyze account and password since there isn’t any direct way to connect to the cameras without the app, at least as far as I know.
