ThinkShutter

ThinkShutter is the branding of a webcam privacy shutter present in some ThinkPad notebook computers.

The series was originally designed by IBM, and then developed and produced by Lenovo since 2005.

Description

It is a mechanical sliding cover that allows the user to obstruct the webcam's view.[1]

Alternatives

Some add-on webcams and other laptop brands provide a similar feature. IdeaPad notebooks carry the TrueBlock branding for their privacy shutters.[2]
