Ah ok, I never considered face ID since I'm using an old Samsung note at the moment.

Why? Hmm, just sometimes feel uncomfortable thinking what if someone is watching, same reason I cover my laptop cam.

What you reckon? Safe without it for the iPhone?

Ultimately up to you.

If you feel uncomfortable thinking someone is watching you then you best stay off the internet altogether lol. I’ve seen people block out their cameras or turn off their microphone access on phones and computers. Meaningless in my opinion. Whatever you do can be tracked, recorded and logged. If you want further proof, don’t take it from me. Take it from one of the most famous people in the computer/ technology world

Yeah, I hear you. When I say watching me though I mean actually watching me through the camera, at least I'd get to physically block that, you know what I mean? I know they can track everything, but just feels nice blocking the cam physically.

I know it’s a concern but honestly I don’t believe agencies have the time or power to sit there watching literally billions of cams. Unless you’re some major government or political leader I highly doubt someone is going to watch you lol. But if it makes you feel better? Go for it. That all rests on how you feel.
