All of them or just the reported ones? Because someone discovered 100k+ undeclared cameras (or so they said) spread around.

The ones reported to OpenStreetMap.

Mapquest is basically a wrapper for OpenStreetMaps, so they kind of get this for free.

Also, all of the major flock reporting tools are built on OSM. So basically, if you use Mapquest, you will get data from DeFlock users.
