I am of the opinion that anything with LED's in it should let me disable them if I want to. They use up juice and add extra light. You would not believe how much black electric tape I have used covering up LED's (For the things I don't feel like opening up to de-soldier them, or for the stupid devices that no longer will work if you remove the LED because of some stupid hardware or software constraint).

>Cost, technical performance and environmental impact these are the three most important aspects for a new type of LED technology to have a broad commercial impact on society. This has been demonstrated by researchers at Linköping University in a study published in Nature Sustainability.

You guys use too much power, we need to SAVE energy!!!

Meanwhile they remove all physical on/off switches and have an LED every inch for no apparent reason.

And in the background the microphones are on and the micros are capturing everything so the active on WiFi connection can burn power uploading..
