There used to be a theory that the upper left corner (?) of your monitor contained a one pixel webcam that "they" used to see what you were doing.

Built-in is convenient, but limits your choices. Sort of like the StUGs, where you had to aim the whole tank if you wanted to shoot somebody.
This post of yours sent me on a 10 minute tangential diversion looking up the Stridsvagn. :)

What's this world coming to? Ratz, getting distracted mid-thread?!

Oh, look, a Great Tit...
"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J

"...anyone who says it’s “just the Internet” can :pawiz: . And then when they come back, they can :pawiz: again." - Tigger
