Margaret Carey, from Brewster's Hamlethub informs us all that ever growing concern for privacy is compromised by software and applications that can be used maliciously against us everyday. 

Webcams in particular are being used to see in on our everyday lives. She advises that keeping your software up to date is the best solution. But for extra security, surfing Amazon products to find a Webcam cover that suits your device is a great option. Queue the shout out! 

Fakespot as always provides an easy to use analysis tool to check reviews of the product you're about to purchase, and it checks if the review is honest and accurate. Certainly worth taking the extra step to achieve privacy and peace of mind!
