Oops, I got too much P and not enough A.

Not arguing with your points (we agree), but regarding my comment about literacy (not the poster who responded):

I was implying that one needs a basic level of tech literacy to even think about cameras as always being on. (As evidenced by the OP, and the poster who replied to me)

As WE know, “I shut off the camera” does not mean the camera is not recording, and “I shut off the WIFI” does not mean the data is secure. Some do not know this.

I can tell you as a tech literate person in healthcare… That I am in the minority of security conscious and knowledgeable users of said technology.

I expect HIPPA violations of unparalleled proportion from this new tech.

People are already terrible at security, and now they have even more information recording methods to mess up.

So, now you have to trust:

1. That the person is not intentionally recording you.

2. That they are not unintentionally recording you.

(Because if a camera is on, and eventually connected to the Internet, well… I should not have to explain how that can be an issue in this forum at least. We now have to trust the users tech literacy, and security diligence.)

Well, you see, I need my hidden wearable camera to detect other hidden cameras…

Why don’t they just install Mint, Zorin, or even xUbuntu (XFCE versions of each)…

That’s 3 examples with actual support and a user base >3 edgelord cat bois.

I just got started with Linux this year when I set up my very 1st proxmox mini PC running multiple Ubuntu sever VM to just today getting around to dual booting my media/gaming PC with Cachy OS.

Add on my Steam deck and Iinux is taking over my house with only 2 dual boot windows installed and one will barely get used.
