Doesn't your computer, phone or tablet have a camera that's constantly pointed at your face while you work? Tracking mouse movements, button clicks, and keystrokes has been going on for decades. Facial recognition is getting fairly advanced.

Doesn't you computer, phone or tablet have a microphone that's constantly close enough to detect your speech? Speech to text and lexical analysis is getting fairly advanced.

I've been counting on the green light to show when the camera is on, but obviously, it's possible that they can get in there and disable the light.

Should I be taping over it?
