The price for invading my privacy is extreme awkwardness

If the NSA is in your threat model, putting a cover over your webcam won't be enough. They have many other ways of peering into the dark recesses of your life.

We need a webcam cover with a dead man's switch

Can we talk about the usability of webcam covers? I mean, sure they're easy to slide open and closed, but they still rely on human memory in order to reap the privacy benefits from them, and human memory can be quite fallible. 

I thought at one point the problem was that black webcam cover on a black laptop screen bezel was just too inconspicuous to really notice if the cover was closed or not, so bent a big piece of cardboard in an upside down U shape to place over the camera to improve visibility, but I still regularly forget and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

It's been 5 days since I last used my webcam and the cover was still open. The only thing I can't think to try now is to employ the mechanism from a deadfall trap to prop open my cardboard cover and connect that to my wrist with a string.

You may not have realized this but people can actually peep IN through your peephole. You may want to invest in some sort of cover for that, and why not a sliding cover like you probably have for your laptop webcam? It doesn't have to look like a barn door.

It's not a bug, it's a feature

Apparently if enough people complain, that feature turns back into a bug.
