I personally use electrical tape over my camera lenses. Makes it blend easier. Ethernet cord pulled? If your computer is turned off, no harm can be done.
As far as smartphones, if you don’t need it or want it, don’t activate it.
LOL, my old pc takes so long to turn ON, I rarely turn it off.
As for smartphones, I don’t want it or need it, and have been making that clear for a long time. I’d still like to know what might be accomplished, by activating a wireless device, not only with that device but in regard to other machines around here.
There are solid reasons for concern, in this particular situation, but I don’t feel comfortable going into detail.
For sure won’t activate it. Can’t afford the monthly fee anyway, once the gift funds ran out.
