FBI able to secretly turn on laptop cameras without triggering indicator light ‘for several years’

In a recent report by The Washington Post, it was revealed that the FBI has been able to secretly activate a target’s laptop camera “without triggering the light that lets users know it is recording” for several years.

They are pushing HDTV cheap as fuck now.. wonder why? SPYTV.

I don't know about anybody else...but that cartoon really creeps me out. I got chicken skin when it loaded, actually made the hair on my arms stand up. Ugg

I would think it would be on the screen somewhere. But not sure. I am not a techie for sure.

Going in as DS said for the mic would also work would it not?
