If you're indulging in adult content online, you might want to slap some electrical tape over your webcam pronto

Cybersecurity experts at Proofpoint, a battle-tested firm, just dropped a bombshell detailing a nasty new strain of “infostealer” malware called Stealerium. This open-source digital menace can hijack your webcam to snap photos, snoop on your browser for NSFW keywords, and capture screenshots of anything spicy - all of which could be weaponized for blackmail and extortion schemes that’ll leave victims reeling.
