Q: Generally deactivate webcam

Hi there,

I'm new to Mac and would like to know if I can generally deactivate the webcam so that it's no longer used by any program. Is that possible?

Kind regards

I'm actually not sure if there is solution by deaktivating. The only thing what really can help you is to take a black tape and put it over your cam.
