but Micah Lee clearly doesn't understand it:

If that attacker gets the ability to run programs of their choice on your
> computer, as they often aim to do, they have access to all of your files.
> They can start logging your keystrokes, taking screenshots, and even
> listening to your microphone and watching through your webcam.



There appears to be a widespread failure in communicating current
vulnerabilities as a result of current features, thus preventing people
from making informed decisions on various topics.
