My philosophy is that if I can reasonably expect privacy in what I'm doing, and it's not illegal, it's on the other person if they go out of their way to peep on me. They're in the wrong, not me, so look all you want.

I never got it either.

If they do anything--which they probably don't--they put images into a database nobody looks at that they just run a computer vision algorithm against when something blows up.

I thought a news story broke that it turned out NSA employees were actually masturbating to private camera views.

First I've heard of it but not surprising I guess. Did those guys get fired?

I have a proper external webcam so keeping the shitty built-in one is pointless. At least a square of black tape makes the laptop look cleaner - it blends in perfectly.

ransomware. If they catch you picking your nose, record you doing something embarrassing, or have a video of you masturbating they can blackmail you for money or make you do things for their amusement.

It seems they were mostly spying on people they knew, but it is highly likely it went beyond that.

no it's not misinformation about the NSA is huge. They don't spy on US citizens like conspiracy theorist act like they do.

Even if they may not have humans watching you do these things live, they have the capability to record and store your entire digital Life for future perusal should you ever come under scrutiny or ruffle the wrong feathers

that information is stored in NSA data centers indefinitely

Things may be good for you now, will they remain so good when the entire history of you can be accessed and used against you? Some weird internet searches, the time you had your webcam plugged in and unobstructed and were doing things you didn't want shared, every image and file attachment sent to or from your personal email account, anything like that. It's there. And it can be accessed and used against you either by those collecting the data, or someone who potentially gains access to that stash of data

If you think nothing like that can happen, Snowden accessed and leaked a bunch of information from the NSA. Everyone's credit information got leaked from what was supposed to be a trusted and secured financial institution. How many data breeches make the news each year? How many more go unreported? Nothing is safe. Covering your cameras isn't totally out there.

In a mass media class in college several years back we watched some sort of doc about government software development or something.
The guy that invented the security software that a bunch of government oversight groups were using had a piece of tape over the camera on his computer.

I never forgot that. It wasn't the point of the documentary at all, but it was hard to ignore.

At which point, they'd have to publicly admit they had wasted all that money spying on people who might possibly be important at a later date. I'm not saying it's completely ridiculous, but it's sort of stupid. Also a theft is completely different than spying.

They were revealed to be doing so... They do mass surveillance on every single person. It's not that they're targeting anyone, they're collecting all of the traffic. Collect data on every possible target. These collection processes have the capability to sort, match, and store it per person. It's all there automatically collected and curated, waiting to be accessed at any time.
