Legislate required hardware switches for: Cameras Microphones Bluetooth Wifi etc... Then go ahead, put your surveillance stuff in. Unfortunately I will never see it because I live in USA, but I can daydream.

    Agreed.

    There won't be any meaningful regulation until information stolen via these kinds of unlawful surveillance leads to a very violent public event, and even that might not be enough. This is America after all, and we love our violence and tragedy theatre.
