What exactly are you trying to show with this picture? Upon looking several times, I *think* you might be referring to the paper over the webcam? If so, kind of. It was shown that Flame was able to enable microphones and cameras on computers without consent of the user. Granted, this was targeted to Iranian government and similar computers, but I think the ability / featureset for malware will improve in the general sphere in the coming years. I remember hearing companies like Lenovo and Dell talking about sliding latches for their AIO desktops' webcams, but those have yet to come out (as far as I know). I think it may very well end up being a common feature found on laptops and desktops meant for business purposes. It makes sense, as businesses often have far more to lose than individuals. |

When my webcam is active, there's a light next to it that lights up. One of my parents has the same type of laptop and I remember them freaking out one time because while they were surfing the web, the light cam on and they weren't using Skype or any such application. |

Yeah I can't do anything about the mic. I'm not particularly talkative when I use the computer anyways. And yeah I was talking about the webcam |
