webcam security

[Guest]

hi
i am new to internet usage.
can someone tell me how to use my webcam safely?
can my webcam possibly be used without my knowledge/ consent?
if yes, how can i safeguard myself?

Cover the lens when you are not actively using the webcam. Most good ones
come with a shade for this purpose.
