Myself, I'm not paranoid, I know what drop in does and I know how to not enable it if I don't want to use it. I also don't encrypt every email, blackout my windows or wear a tinfoil hat.
As for possible surreptitious abuse of the feature, I'll take the risk, just as I have since I hooked my first microphone-equipped pc to the Internet, many years ago. I'm not even going to review the source code.
That being said, I don't enable Drop In. It's a bit creepy.

Am I understanding correctly that if a friend and I both enabled Drop In, I could connect to that device and eavesdrop/watch without the other person even being home to accept my invasion? That's
incredibly creepy.
