That was painful to read. Someone needs to enroll these scammers in a good ESL course.

Good luck with that cam bit, tho. My lens has been covered by electrical tape since five minutes after I unboxed my computer.

Lets get to purpose. Very excellent hacker (me) has installed virtual remote private tape remover when you view x videos (you are understanding my saying). I use hacking skills to remotely remove tape from camera. :wink: You may think tape is still there, but not correct are you.

I used to do that. Nowadays I physically disconnect the camera and mic. If I need a mic, I have a vastly superior one I can plug into my external sound card. As far as I’m concerned, a camera onboard anything except my phone is a bug, not a feature.
