That's an extra moving part that will break, get jammed, or will trap dirt/particles between the cover and lens and effectively sand off the lens over time.

The solution is proper, enforced anti-spyware and anti-stalking legislation (so not the GDPR), not hardware band-aids that are trivially bypassed.

The real solution is a better software culture that looks like GNU/FOSS. Such a culture would generate laws like that if a problem persisted but likely wouldn't need them.

The solution is cash.
