They'd probably take the Volkswagen strategy:

Team A builds a feature that detects when the device is in a localized area. (This already exists)

Team B builds a feature that disables the camera. (I could see this being a parental control)

Both features are reasonable by themselves. It's when they are combined that they become an issue. The trick is that Teams A and B don't know of each other's existence.

Someone would have to add their integrations though. The features won't be joined magically together.

There are also countless people who’d gladly knowingly sign up to implement such a feature. No need to try some roundabout way when all you need to do is feel out the political leanings of a couple guys in the office then recruit them for a secret project.

There are enough qualified amoral mercenary devs out there who would be willing to do it - and keep quiet about it.

>>enitih+11
I'm sure they can find at least one willing asshole.

TIL the expression "the Volkswagen strategy" and I love it.

Thanks, I'll be using that.
