Be careful what you download. Your computer is the perfect spying device. Tech-savvy voyeurs can turn computers against their users, allowing a hijacker to see a user through a webcam, hear them through the computer’s microphone, and see what goes on on their screens. That’s what 32-year-old Luis Mijangos did to over 100 computers, allowing him to read his victims’ email, steal financial information, overhear private conversations, and obtain surreptitious photos of them. As you might expect from a 32-year-old male, the majority of his victims were female.
