Whats next?
"There is, however, one simple way to dodge the prying eyes of the malware merchants--just unplug or switch the webcam off when it's not in use."

I mean really what's the next suggestion, don't use the Internet? We already have to switch browser, switch from outlook, buy Antiviral and software, firewall, clean our systems for spyware every couple days, check for updates weekly, now I have to be careful some geek is snooping at my little sister. Why am I still using Windows again?
