I don't really understand the webcam paranoia. If my computer is completely compromised, somebody watching my face is the least of my worries.

To me it's not about the computer being compromised, but rather joining a WebEx/Hangouts/other conference/meeting software that suddenly decides to start sharing your webcam without prompting you.

There's been numerous times where I've joined meetings and someone gets caught with a goofy face or working from home in their PJs because they mis-clicked something on a crappy e-meeting UI.

Yep, I just joined a early morning meeting via webex recently and accidentally revealed to about 20 people from around the world what I look like without a shirt on. It's not pretty.
