Keep your private life private (please.) with this simple webcam cover

For me, it has less to do with worries about stranger surveillance and more to do with untrustworthy peers, unreliable colleagues, nutjob family members and (very former) stalkery romantic partners. I don’t always know their hacking skills, and in the last case, don’t know how they’re spending their time. I work in a place with shared machines, and while I trust our IT security services, that hasn’t always been true. While I do practice strong password and access hygiene, I have colleagues who do stupid things like pick up and use abandoned USB drives. I worry far more about key loggers than cam surveillance, but defending against a compromised cam takes 5 seconds out of 60 days.
