Default Monitor with built in camera

I saw this:

There was a flaw in some Samsung TVs that allowed hackers to turn on
the tv's camera remotely. The hackers could watch some fat chick on
the couch eat Bon Bons while she was watching All Star Wrestling (or
whatever).

So I looked up this:

I think having a camera built into a monitor would really boost
Google+ and Youtube discussion videos. Some are pretty lame, but
every once in while you get some interesting ones.

And then there are always webcam girls. I would like to assist them
in any way I could. Girls of Reddit, we love you.

They could include a physical switch located on the monitor to turn
off the camera.

Otherwise, there's nothing wrong with it, it just functions like a
web cam. You might not want to buy one for underage children.
