      Got any examples? I found that Purism and Framework have them, are there others on the market right now?

        I have a framework. I’m not aware of any others though. But I do remember that physical wifi switches were common on HPs back about 15-20 years ago.

        Never seen one I’d actually trust for the mic, but I’ve seen a lot of Lenovos that have sliding covers for the camera.

        I’m a little reluctant to put an adhesive slider on my MacBook because it closes pretty tight and I’m afraid the extra thickness would create a pressure point and cause damage over time.

        It’s rare for laptop to come with hardware switches for microphones but some of them are built with camera switches

        Have seen a Dell Latitude 5400 (I think) with an hardware camera cover
