In an old (and now closed) thread, two solutions for disabling webcams were discussed:
1. unload the matching module
2. remove permissions of /dev/video0
The first has the disadvantage of disabling all webcams (not just the internal one), the second one has the disadvantage of being called "hacky" and - this is why I'm starting this new thread - isn't permanent as I now discovered.
So has anyone an idea how to disable the internal webcam permanently without disabling ones attached by USB?
(No, I don't want to use a hammer... ;-) )
PS:
Sorry for the previous "necrobumping"; I thought it was appropriate because of the rule "If you have a version-agnostic or corresponding solution, necrobumping can be appropriate."

can't you disable it in the bios?
