I feel like the goverment spying on my computer?

They are without a doubt, and they're actually working hard to expand that(UK is building an Censor-Machine like the Chinese have, GCHQ(British NSA) is just as active as the NSA itself, and with the lawsuits for Internet-Neutrality losing, the road is clear for Big-Brother to take over completely, which they will do, but won't talk about, to gain max-results).

If you don't want to get caught with your 'pants down', put a bandaid, or bit of tape over your webcam, so it's covered, and muffled when you're not using it.

If you are in america, then yes the government tracks your computer. It may seem like an invasion of privacy, but they do catch criminals through this

They probably monitor computers of known terrorists , and people who could endanger the country . but how could they spy o0n every computer in the country , its not possible . it will be a similar situation in the UK .

Nathan has no idea what he is talking about. The government spying on everything you do is a hoax and a conspiracy theory.

Over protection is no good. You should consider internet as a public place where high crime rate as in a sin city. As the film Matrix, the internet has been doomed by hackers and cybercrooks.

Matthew 5

15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick, and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

You're entitled to your paranoia.
