I remember a phone company saying they were going to install cameras in the screens but then no one every talked about it again. Does anyone check?

Edit: I mean hidden cameras for “security”.

    He’s talking about physical switches that cut power to the hardware.

    I think what you’re referring to with Apple is that the camera (on MacBooks) is wired in a way so that it’s impossible for the camera to be on without the indicator light also being on. Software can’t do anything because it’s not controlled by software.
