I'm not sure it would require 'intervention from the software on the computer', by which I think you mean, the software running on the CPU. For instance it does not seem beyond the realm of possibility that firmware in your webcam could communicate over the PCI bus with firmware in your ethernet card to transmit video. Note also that while the software running on your CPU might be beyond reproach (you carefully read every javascript file before you execute it right?), the microcode running on your cpu can do just about anything. |

IMHO, it does. The PCI bus isn't something that gets shared on a whim. The functionality you need for this would have to be built in the BIOS.
