LOL, when you are on the computer do it feels like someone is watching you? DO you feel like you can be seen? Have you ever done something and forgot that the webcam is on?
There are many people who get caught like this they forget that the computer is on, so the next thing they know is that they see a light on their computer and soon realize that they forgot to cut the webcam off, there is much to be said after you have known some of the things that you have done, knowing that you could be very much embarrassed. I mean what if you where picking your nose or something and forgot about it. Or if you had a scratch LOL
and it all was on the camera? How would you feel?

Yeah, that can happen often, forgetting to turn off the webcam. Well, atleast, I don't have that problem since I don't have a webcam installed. When I have it, of course, I should be careful. Thank you for reminding !

Hi,
I use to turn off the webcam when I am online, yes, it is as if it is watching and listening so I have to turn it off. Who knows what could be on the other end? I seldom go chatting by camera so there it was, gathering dust on my table, unseeing and deaf, or is it?

My webcam light turns on when it's working so it's easy to see. i had a friend who was paranoid about that so he put a sticker on his laptop webcam lol.

Formerly, I used to access to someone else's computer from away with a simple software. I could use his/her webcam and direct his/her computer. I was amateur. Then I said that someone who is amateur like me can access someone else's computer, think that the professionals can do a lot of things. I haven't used webcam since I thought. And there is no problem anymore :)

I don't think my Webcam is being used to spy on me. I'm on a Mac with good anti-virus.

I feel like I was being watched all the time. I'm a little paranoid, I admit. I feel much better that other people feels this way as well.
But about what you said about forgetting if your webcam is on and you got caught doing embarrassing things, I don't usually get embarrassed over something like that. I usually get embarrassed when I do something that doesn't really embarrass a normal person. lol
