The LED needs to be connected to the power lead on the camera. Then it cannot be hacked via the software.

Also, microphones and cameras need physical switches to enable them, not software switches. Preferably with an LED indicator too.

This is what I did with the electric fuel pump on my car. A dash light connected to the power lead, and a physical switch. There's also a low oil pressure switch that'll interrupt the power to the fuel pump.
