Animated gifs in web pages which only animate if a webcam
is plugged in, and only if they detect that no-one is looking
directly at them.

How about other animations that do rude things
when no one is looking? |
|
| |
One problem: can a web browser access your
webcam? |
|

[MaxwellBuchanan], almost certainly. But not directly; you would have to plug in something like Java or ActiveX, applications that can link a browser to everything in a computer system that the browser's built-in security model forbids accessing. That's why Java and ActiveX are associated with security risks, of course! |
