So I was watching a YouTube video when my Mac started getting ******* crazy and almost gave me a heart attack. Turns out it was an out of the blue FaceTime call. I never use that program and so no, I didn't disable it on this new Mac. But what kind of company would set such a default setting? I can't remember having to deal with such an annoying software "feature" in my life. Anyway, my question is: since my webcam light turned green, was the person calling me able to see me? That would be the cherry on top of the cake.
Got a tip for us?

Well you have to sign in to use it....guess you must have done that, you can't just randomly make a FaceTime call to a Mac without FT being logged in.
Yes the green light indicates the camera is on. They will see you once you answer the call.
