Yes....WFB policy terms of use say as much. Between Skype calls turn off the Mic driver.

Paranoia will destroy ya

Personally, I'd go for the tin hat because there is No Such Agency that has that power or capability, legally speaking, or otherwise accidental...
Remember, we work better when we're connected, we're in this together.

Isn’t there another blog you could use for this other than layoffs.com Mr. Spanky?
You worried about them seeing your bottle of lo---n and Kleenex box by your bedside?

Sorry Google, Facebook, Amazon are the digital peeping tom's of Corp America. Free email in exchange for getting full access to read all your emails. Wells Fargo.. ha they wouldn't even know what to do with the data.
