I always found it interesting people are obsessed with the camera and being watched. Me sitting and typing at my computer couldn’t possibly be interesting for anyone to watch. It’s directional so I’m confident the worst they can do is catch me looking particularly stupid or picking my nose. The microphone however captures all sounds in my environment - and there’s tons of things I don’t want folks to overhear, let alone derive like key strokes. Yet, there’s no effective way to ensure the microphone is physically disabled or ineffective. I couldn’t even tell you where the microphone is on most devices and as Google recently demonstrated whether a microphone is a part of my varied connected devices.
