Sure, but the laptops you describe do not have secure enclave. If I want that level of security on Linux what can I do?

- johncolanduoni 10y agoWhat would the enclave do for you if you're running an OS that doesn't support Apple Pay or Touch ID?
- Zoon 10y agoIt is used for the camera too.
- cm3 10y agoOn Thinkpads you can disable the routing of signals of the mic and camera in the firmware. Afterwards, it's not available to the kernel. Whether that's somehow hackable via a UEFI bug I don't know, but there are also laptops with physical switches the mic, wifi and a lid for the camera. Your safest bet is to open it up and disconnect the device, which is less likely to raise alarms on Linux and BSD than it is under macos, I assume.
