Why/Privacy

I think hardware switches to kill the camera's, microphones, and wireless card would be amazing. These are the only things keeping me from buying a System76 laptop this exact moment.

just unplug them and use a rigid cable webcam like this; https://www.phidgets.com/?tier=3&catid=97&pcid=77&prodid=363

I second this.

Hardware switches are a must and are one of the reasons for Frame.Work's success. Not many other brands have them and if they do it's only for one of their models.
