An LED is pretty damn simple and there’s no reason it would even be possible to control the voltage going to it. May as well worry about hackers finding a way to make a physical shutter transparent.
that could work, or perhaps have a cut-out on the camera cover that blurs all light going in and has the words written on it “shutter closed” or something. Digital way built into the driver is probably easiest.
My current work laptop has a shutter built in which heavily blurs the camera, so it’s relatively obvious why your camera isn’t working but you still get some level of privacy
It’s worth noting that in recent MacBooks the camera can’t turn on if the led is off. It’s an electrical thing, not a software thing.

There is an end user support concern with this. I prefer sliders, but users will put in tickets saying their camera doesn’t work.
I still buy lenovo just for this professionally.
