Is it illegal to click on an IP address and view a live feed?

It depends. In many jurisdictions (e.g., the US under the CFAA), accessing a computer system without authorization is illegal. While the feed is "public" in the sense that no password protects it, a court could argue that you knew or should have known the feed was not intended for public consumption. Viewing private moments of unaware individuals is almost certainly a violation of privacy laws and ethical norms.
