Just a FYI for all of you "one-handed typists" out there:

Report: British intelligence division stealing screenshots of Yahoo users' webcam pictures, nudity

The newspaper said GCHQ has been scooping up the sensitive images by intercepting video chats such as the kind offered by Yahoo Messenger, an effort codenamed OPTIC NERVE. It's not clear how many Yahoo users were spied on in this way....

....at one screenshot every five minutes, material published to the Guardian's website appeared to show U.K. analysts being deluged with X-rated footage.

"It would appear that a surprising number of people use webcam conversations to show intimate parts of their body to the other person," another snippet of an intelligence document published said. It went on to say that an informal study had found that between 3 and 11 percent of all the images carried "undesirable nudity."

I believe they got the webcam hack from the NSA.
All Obama has done to the NSA is to grow it larger.
NSA denied any part of it, they wouldn't lie would they?

On the bright side, they might be able to reduce the deficit if they used these pics to launch a website. Ijs
