Webcams have presented a security liability for years, yet many of us don't cover them up. Should we?

Tape might give you some peace of mind because it thwarts webcam attacks well, but the reality is that cameras and microphones are everywhere now, including in your voice-enabled TV remote, your Alexa device, and your phone. You can't easily disable or tape over a microphone, and audio clips can be just as damaging as video content.
