A serious bug discovered in Apple's iOS allows users of FaceTime to have access στο μικρόφωνο και στην camera of the calling device even if the owner of the device does not answer the call.
The script: Someone calls FaceTime to another person who has an iOS device and adds himself or herself to the FaceTime Group before answering.
This will cause the caller's microphone to be activated and allow them to hear what is happening in the room. If now the owner of the device presses the power button to mute the FaceTime call, the front camera will also be enabled.
This means that if someone calls you on FaceTime, they could hear and see what you're doing without you knowing.
It is not known at this time who first discovered the error, but many publish it Social Networks as a video as you see below.

9to5Mac says Apple is aware of the problem and will release a fix this week.
Until then, it would be good to turn off FaceTime on your device completely from Settings - FaceTime.
