On top of the issues raised by this article I have another problem with people telling me the indicator LED makes it unnecessary to cover my camera.

It’s quite simple, really - the indicator only works if I look at the indicator. A sticker works all the time.

Also the indicator is just tells you if its on. It doesn't stop it from turning on (like your sticker)

I suspect the indicator also only works if the LED is not dead.
