Remember the good old days, when people thought you were crazy and paranoid for putting a sticker over your laptop camera or webcam when you weren't using it?
WikiLeaks released new documents on Thursday within the Vault 7 documents, which contain information on CIA's hacking tools from the Dumbo project.
Funny how nobody thinks that anymore."Dumbo is a capability to suspend processes utilizing webcams and corrupt any video recordings that could compromise a PAG deployment. The PAG (Physical Access Group) is a special branch within the CCI (Center for Cyber Intelligence); its task is to gain and exploit physical access to target computers in CIA field operations," WikiLeaks said in a press release.

There was a blink-and-you'll-miss-it scene in the Zuckerberg biopic, where all
of the computers in Facebook's development lab had band-aids on the camera.
This was a few years ago, so somebody knew something.
I heard about that. Zuckerberg's Apple Airbook had tape over the camera lens.
