Also remove your microphone and don't use a keyboard? If I were hacking you I'd _much_ rather log your keystrokes or hear what you're saying.

The number of scenarios where having a visual would be useful would be incredibly low by comparison.

Putting a sticker over your webcam is like putting a lock on a screen door.

Most screen doors I can think of do have locks.

Even quite home made ones often end up with a hook that kids can't reach.

That's my point. It does one thing, but it's by no means security.
