DO the same for anything that is attached to it if possible. Some of the TVs with built in video cameras (for conferencing) can be remotely activated and you can be the star on someone elses TV or perhaps Facebook or other sites.

This is even scarier than I thought. I have never bothered to check whether there is a password and ID for that matter. Looks like there is no safety (at all) when connected to the internet.
