The video shown above was made by 28 yr old software engineer Adam Chronister who had uncovered a big brother conspiracy. After being told by a friend that they were putting cameras in the DTV units, Adam decided to open up his government subsidized DTV converter. As he proceeds to take apart the unit, the horrible truth is revealed on video. A webcam and microphone is discovered inside. 

Fortunately for American's, the video was a hoax, so don't go ripping apart your converter units. However, the real conspiracy could have been to get you think this was a hoax so no one would investigate further [insert evil laugh], you gotta love the minds of the paranoid and delusional. If you live in Canada you don't have to worry, Rogers and Bell are more interested in over charging and providing poor service rather than spying on you. [via Wired Blogs]
