In this case, system profiles are installed to disable the camera.\n\nDisable:\n\n```bash\nsudo isight off\n```\n\nEnable:\n\n```bash\nsudo isight on\n```\n\nRunning the `isight` command without any arguments will display the camera's current status.\n\nView a simple help page using:\n\n```bash\nisight help\n```\n\n## Caveats\n\nThe script simply restricts system access to the files that are required by the iSight drivers. Anyone with root access can re-enable the camera.\n\nIf the Disk Utility repair permissions tool is ran when the camera is disabled, the process will re-enable the camera.\n\n## Contributing\n\nFeel free to fork this repository, make your changes and generate a pull request!\n\n## Acknowledgements\n\nThis script is based off of the work completed by [http://techslaves.org](http://techslaves.org) on their great AppleScript \"iSight Disabler\".\n\nPlease visit: [http://techslaves.org/isight-disabler/](http://techslaves.org/isight-disabler/) to see the original AppleScript implementation.\n\n## License\n\niSight CLI Disabler is licensed under the MIT license.
