I always keep a small piece of black electrical tape over the camera on my computers. If you know where the microphones are, keep tape over them also. If you get a message on FaceTime or Skype, it's easy to peel the tape off and use it again later. There is a vid and still of Zuckerberg on the Internet that shows his laptop is taped like this.

Is it still a concern if you dont visit suspicious sites?

I'm thinking that if Zuck is taking precautions, I should too and it only takes two little pieces of tape. As I see it, the Internet is much more suspicious now than in the old days. Suspiciouser and suspiciouser.
