To me it's not about the computer being compromised, but rather joining a WebEx/Hangouts/other conference/meeting software that suddenly decides to start sharing your webcam without prompting you.
There's been numerous times where I've joined meetings and someone gets caught with a goofy face or working from home in their PJs because they mis-clicked something on a crappy e-meeting UI.
- csydas 11y agoI used WebEx meetings for the first time very recently and was rather frustrated by this as well. Quite a few of my colleagues had the exact same issue, and there were quite a few surprised people showing up on the camera after clicking the camera icon after mistaking the preview as broadcasting to the meeting.
- ams6110 11y agoYep that's why I do it. I don't take it off either. Voice is good enough for anything remote.
- hueving 11y agoYep, I just joined a early morning meeting via webex recently and accidentally revealed to about 20 people from around the world what I look like without a shirt on. It's not pretty.
