I thought the whole point of these camera LEDs was to have them wired to/through the power to the camera, so they are always on when the camera is getting power, no matter what.

Having the LED control exposed through the firmware completely defeats this.

I stumbled on a forum once where it was just filled with people trying to modify the software for various laptops to disable the "tally lamp" (as it is called). There were people selling the mods and one guy claiming he was selling his cracks to three-letter agencies. The people on there seemed to be using this to extort people (mostly women) by being able to record videos without the owner knowing. Some really dark shit.
