Not sure but I heard that it's impossible for the camera to capture images/video without its light coming on. That would be the sensible way to make them, after all. Also I don't really care if someone sees me, so what? And I'm not very concerned over security measures in general (except that on my new computers I decided not to run any pirated software), so I don't bother to tape it. Is it paranoia or a legit concern? I dunno, I feel it's somewhere in between.
