Why does he do that?
“Sophisticated hackers are able to secretly take control of a laptop camera, so Zuckerberg is beating any would-be hackers to the punch by rendering the webcam useless with a piece of tape,” Gizmodo writes.
He has good reason to. He is the CEO of one of the most valuable companies in the world. So his privacy is worth billions of dollars.
Your privacy is important, too. Maybe stick some tape on there.
