Good work! People talk about how a webcam cover is essential on laptops but I think iOS side of this exploit is even more crucial. Very few people use camera covers for phones, cause they are ugly and new phones have FaceID etc which makes impossible to use a camera cover daily. More importantly, we take our phones to places more private, like bathrooms. Now that iOS Safari support front facing camera stream, I think this discovery worth more than $75K

Every computer controlled camera and microphone should come with an actual mechanical switch that cuts power.
