Re: Buy secondhand

"A sticky square cut from a Post-It note over the camera lens works great."

....unless they are using the camera as a light sensor. I use two layers of cellotape on my mobe so light gets through but the image would be the same as a whole tub of Vaseline on the lens.

I chucked the TV years ago and certainly wouldn't plug one into the internet. I am putting a TV in the bedroom but it will be fed media from a media box so I can watch things I get online away from the computer.
