Hackers won't have much to blackmail me, I fap completely silently.

It's more about privacy. Windows might access your mic to get more data on you for advertising, wouldn't be anything new.

I am joking of course. I am a privacy freak myself:

  1. All my computers run Linux
  2. I self-host all what I can and encrypt as much as I can by myself too
  3. On desktop, Mic and Cam are connected to a USB hub with individual switches such that they are powered ON only when I need them
  4. Laptop is a Framework 13 with HW switches for both Cam and Mic

There is something about the webcam switch on the Lenovo from work, that I like better than the Framework: The switch also physically blocks the camera. It makes me feel more safe and it's actually much more intuitive to understand when it is disable. On Framework, the switch shows either red or black, but I never know what is enable and disable. Is it red for "Careful, it's active !" or red for "Disable" ? (It's Red=Disable, Black=Active).
