A bit tangential, but if you want to track when programs are recording audio or video you should try out OverSight [0]. Although, since it's just software it's possible it can be bypassed by direct attacks, and it can sometimes fail to detect which program is accessing the webcam or microphone. Even with those limitations I still think it's better than nothing. Micro Snitch [1] is another alternative, although it's more limited in its functionality since it doesn't try to detect what program is accessing your webcam or microphone. It also costs $3.99, while OverSight is free.
