No people can't snoop. All hardware requires software. The "snooping" issues are related to weak Windows security in that unauthorized remote access to someone OS. Either through left open ports, trojans or just plain bad weak links. Once unauthorized code is executed that code can do anything. Delete data, send data elsewhere or activate hardware like webcams. This is an OS issue NOT a hardware issue.
Since 360 isn't built with all the accessibility protocols that Windows has this would make the 360 less accisable to such things. A good sign of this possibly happening is this. Can 360 be access remotely, can code be executed without permision(ie web pages with Active X), does the 360 have viruses? if you say yes to any of these then yes webcam snooping can be done, but I bet anything the answer is no. 360 has no Active X, as no remote execution and doesn't have viruses.
This reminds me of the days when people thought because NDS had WiFi that there would be NDS viruses. Missing the point that such acitvity is a software problem not a hardware one.
Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
