Nétanyahou's phone is already quite old, but he has taped it.
Ordinary people usually don't put tape over their phone cameras—there are security reasons behind this practice.
This is actually a human-made security measure.
Using red tamper-evident stickers or tape over the phone camera serves as a physical barrier that can prevent remote spyware—such as zero-click exploits or webcam hijacking—from activating the lens when the device is compromised.
Covering the camera also prevents accidental or unauthorized capture of sensitive materials in confidential areas like parliament or the prime minister’s office.
This is a standard technical procedure for high-level Israeli officials facing advanced cyber threats.
