FBI director: Cover up your webcam [View all]

We get it, Comey. Somebody might be hacking you (Hillary).

That's right. Never give up on your "paranoia."

The head of the FBI on Wednesday defended putting a piece of tape over his personal laptop's webcam, claiming the security step was a common sense one that most should take.

“You go into any government office and we all have the little camera things that sit on top of the screen,” he added. “They all have a little lid that closes down on them.

“You do that so that people who don’t have authority don’t look at you. I think that’s a good thing.”

“It’s not crazy that the FBI director cares about personal security as well,” the FBI director added. “So I think people ought to take responsibility for their own safety and security.”

Never mind these are the government computer systems Comey said would have been much better for Hillary's use.

So sophisticated they can't stop webcam hacks?
