You don't "have to" do anything.
The point is that the hardware has been designed properly. Combined with the OS-level permissions, it should be assurance enough for the majority of use cases.
If you need further assurances, then by all means, use a physical cover.
- dasudasu 6y agoThe claim was that single-frame grab attempts are prevented by an indicator that stays on for 3 seconds. First, you do have to be alert for all of these potential 3 seconds windows, and second, it doesn't prevent anything but only tell you that it has already happened.
- saagarjha 6y agoNo, it wasn't. The claim was whether it was implemented correctly, as the entire conversation started with examples where it was not implemented correctly.
- smsm42 6y agoProperly designed hardware would add one small - and in every way possible, since we've already identified the circuit that drives the single power source - addition. A physical switch that prevents camera from being turned on. Same for the microphone. Unfortunately, this is never done. So people put covers on.
