More crap hitting the fan!

""The Guardian" newspaper says many of the users were not intelligence targets.

Britain's surveillance agency GCHQ, aided by the National Security Agency, have intercepted and stored the webcam images from millions of Yahoo chats by users who were not being targeted for any wrongdoing, The Guardian reports, quoting from secret documents."

and a few years ago most people would recommend you a tin foil for suggesting the government does this. The shit just gets deeper. I wonder what we'll learn next.

One secret document estimated that 3% to 11% of the Yahoo webcam imagery snared by GCHQ contains "undesirable nudity."

I want to know what makes this particular nudity undesirable.

Fat and / or ugly people.


We know this has to be false. Who even uses yahoo messenger? I'm sure the NSA is monitoring everyone's ICQ conversations as well...

Am I the only person with a piece of black electrical tape covering the camera on my laptop & iPad?

Yeah haha, I did that twice I remember ... once when I was setting up business software for my parents' laptop, I don't use laptops or any smartphones myself at all.

No. Mine doesn't even have one :). But, while I wouldn't say it's common, I've seen it done on several occasions.
