If you are hacked, the camera light won't tell you. The camera light also won't protect your microphone or your personal data.

- yoz-y 10y agoBut the light won't tell you because of a flawed design. It should be trivial to design a webcam LED which can not be turned off while the camera is being used.

- jjnoakes 10y agoIf I'm hacked and the attacker doesn't touch my camera, then it can't tell me. That's the whole point.
- Houshalter 10y agoBut if they do touch your camera then you will know. If they don't touch your camera, then putting a piece of tape over it is pointless anyway.
