It's not enabled. And someone with access to your computer can just install their own keylogger anyway, so why is this even a security threat?

Well we didn't know it was there at all not long ago. How sure can we be now that there is no hidden remote way to turn it on?

That's not a valid form of reasoning. Just because we didn't know about something before isn't an excuse to make random assumptions.
