"Should have an LED that goes on when it is active"

We originally had the option to switch this on or off on our Google Nestcams. Then they changed it so that you could only dim it.

I placed black insulation tape over the light on all external cameras. Now criminals don't know they are being filmed and in two cases in two years they has stared directly into the lens assuming the camera was off. Good result all around.
