Please spell it out for me. Seems being 0001 1001 years old hasn't opened up my mind to such basic concepts.
Also, what about the front camera on my phone?
Watching porn?

Also, the camera on your phone rarely points out towards the whole room.
Oops. I use a dock. Mine always does.

Ah, yeah, edge-cases :)
I don't use a laptop if I can avoid it. My personal workstation is right across from my bed, and it's powered 24/7 since it's acting as a file-server and game-server.
Given how everything is angled, I suppose a webcam infiltrator would have a perfect view of me sleeping.
My room has 30 deg C in summer, which is a big incentive to be less than fully clothed.
When I'm done using my laptop I close it.
