This is nothing - the nsa/fbi have the ability to read data off airgapped computers.. Now that is insane.

and accessing your camera remotely like this, then you have bigger problems to worry about and your OPSEC should be much better than that tbh. Black tape it always doing the magic, and if you have
an Open source OS or like tails, you have nothing to worry about.
