"But many found it ironic for Comey, who this year launched a high profile battle against Apple to gain access to data locked inside of the iPhone used by one of the San Bernardino, Calif., terrorists."

I've got a better idea-- smash it with something heavy.

Last night I watched a documentary called “Hacktivists”. It was VERY revealing. I know it’s been out for a while so it’s old news for some, but I was very surprised by some of the people they included in this vid. I was also surprised by some of the technology and the depth of betrayal afforded to us.

Ps...a bandaid works well, That way sticky stuff isn’t left on the lense in case you do need to use it at some point.

But, you can’t muffle the speakers without crippling your internet experience if you use the net a lot for news and commentary, music or whatever.

Just let the Felon’s personal staff do it.

Can the computer be hacked to listen in on you and can wireless be hacked to listen in on your home?

I’ve been doing this for years. A little corner of a post-it note works great. Also, t’s quite handy to write your password on the post-it note.

I’ve always done the same thing and encouraged my children to do the same. My daughter, who went to Case Wester Reserve University in Cleveland, a true “techno-nerd” university, said that their student-run tech center advised the same thing. It’s just common sense.

Have to agree with him.
I’d cover the camera on any computer I bought and only remove it if I needed the feature.

Comey was pilloried online earlier this year, after he revealed that he puts a piece of tape over his laptop camera to keep away prying eyes.

He should be pilloried, but not for that.

Robbins v. Lower Merion School District:
The suit alleged that, in what was dubbed the "WebcamGate" scandal, the schools secretly spied on the students while they were in the privacy of their homes.[4][5] School authorities surreptitiously and remotely activated webcams embedded in school-issued laptops the students were using at home.[6][7] After the suit was brought, the school district, of which the two high schools are part, revealed that it had secretly snapped more than 66,000 images.[8][9] The suit charged that in doing so the district infringed on its students' privacy rights.[6][10][11] A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction, ordering the school district to stop its secret webcam monitoring, and ordered the district to pay the plaintiffs' attorney fees.[12][13][14]

” The precaution is a common one among security advocates, given the relative ease of hacking laptop cameras.”

If it’s that easy to hack the camera, then it means that have already gotten INTO your laptop system to do so.

THEY seem to be more worried about what the camera might show than all the ‘classified’ data on their harddrive.

There was a case in a Philadelphia suburb where school students brought school laptops with cameras home and someone from the school turned on the cameras remotely and was watching some of the kids. It is an issue.

There’s some sensible things you should be doing, and that’s one of them,” Director James Comey

And the other one is removing Comey far away from any position of power or authority. It's a good thing, his days are numbered.

putting a piece of tape over his personal laptop's webcam

I tried this but they are still spying on me. Maybe my roll of Scotch tape is defective?

Yep, and the San Bernardino terrorist and others were literally imported right into our towns and cities by those in government. Great leadership, good job Comey!

Looking sharp America.
