How do you know if the cameras/microphone are active when you're not using it? You don't.

How do you know that on an iPad? Or any other device in your home?

I admit this sounds kind of dumb, but... Apple versus some relatively obscure company I just heard about?

To clarify, is Zoom or DTEN the company you are referring to?

DTEN: the lesser known between the two, and the one making the hardware.

Right... but I mean they choose whether or not to show those indicators... so why do you trust them to do that?

Seeing as it only has one purpose, you could unplug it when its not in use.
