A Toggle Switch is a POSITIVE interrupter.
You (general population) do not know how modern buttons are implemented.
Most are LOGIC controls that bring an item out of some level Sleep. The item is never really OFF (0 power applied to anything past the inlet switch).
FWIW My web cams have a lens cover, just because it is possible to activate without the LED lighting. Little
effort convenience has its privacy price (and pitfalls, when folk forget how to do it manually
).
