Let's hope the your-webcam-is-active LED is hardwired in hardware and not controlled by software or firmware in computers released from now and onwards.

I always hear people saying that on MacBooks it is.

I wish someone could verify.

It’s possible to modify the firmware of the camera to disable the LED. Sorry I can’t remember the source.
