Soooooo. Doesn't this open up a whole new realm of privacy concerns? Who cares if Path has my contacts list, I'm more concerned that you guys are watching me surf for porn!
Legit concern. This is why we've built an app w/o a server component, so everything happens on your machine. We do not capture anything from your webcam. It all happens on your machine. On top of it, there's a turn off capability which will allow you to turn it off for time being.
