My company (major telecom) literally gives away camera covers. Surely they'd do same for mics if there was a convenient cheap way. There's plenty of rumors about mics & cameras being commandeered by hackers & secret agencies.
Apple gets ahead by actually securing mic access. Lots of people want it.

- bunnycorn 8y agoSure thing... Tell that to toushands of employees of fortune 500, that don't care one bit about security, as it's not their responsabilty. They will plug the USB mic and that would be it. It even goes in the bag with the ports plugged in if it has space.
