Snoop Guard (beta)

Receive a notification every time your webcam and/or you microphone are being used

Todo list:

• check whether a webcam is being used or not ✅
• use all video dev and not only one ✅
• check whether the mic is being used or not ✅
• server ✅
• 🔛 client

Requirements

• GCC/Clang
• GTK+-3.0 (only needed if the client is built)
• glib-2.0
• alsa-lib
• libnotify

Installation

TODO

How To

Put the snoop-guard.service file under $HOME/.config/systemd/user/. Then execute:

• systemctl --user daemon-reload
• systemctl --user enable snoop-guard

Limitations

• ignore_apps is applied only to the webcam check. I haven't found a way to determine by which application the mic is being used. Feel free to open a PR if you know how to do it :)
• only one microphone is supported. Again, feel free to open a PR if you wanna improve it :)
