So, instead of hiding the fact that the microphone and camera is there, they make you WANT it there by offering the skype service. That's classic. Like David Icke says, it's the Totalitarian Tiptoe.
So, now they have plausible deniability by saying that they put it there in anticipation of the new technologies that were gonna be available and offered to everyone.
Sneak it in, get caught, and lie your way out of it by making everyone want it. It's just like the iphones with their tracking. Get caught and lie. Classic Illuminati move. Explain it away in a way that makes more people buy it in spite of the ramifications.
