For me it's the paranoia surrounding webcams. People outright refuse to own one and I understand, until they go on and on about how they're being spied. Here's the secret - unplug the damn thing when you think you won't use it or haven't used it in a while.

They, whoever it is, can't really spy on you on something that's already off and unplugged!

Yeah to be fair if you do all the homework with LaTeX there's no reason not to set up your machine.

I've even heard of someone who even used it to take notes in class... Honestly I wouldn't dare to try and learn that!

But yes, that's when the macros and possibilities you don't have on overleaf becomes really good to have.
