Too bad it mainly shows your nostrils :(
- PascLeRasc 6y agoThe attack most people are worried about is your camera being activated while your laptop is open. Huawei's approach seems worse since you can't just apply a cover to it.

- PascLeRasc 6y agoOh I didn't know that, I thought it popped up when the camera was activated. My mistake.
- int_19h 6y agoThere are plenty of laptops with a built-in hardware cover for the camera.
