It's great. Thank you!
Love it, I hate google meet does not remember the turn off camera option
Simple, lightweight, does what it's supposed to do. Perfect!
For those who report that the extension does not work or does not shut the camera, maybe you are experiencing something similar to me: on a PC running Windows 7, my camera's ON indicator (a green light) would sometimes remain lit even though the camera signal was OFF. This issue is gone now that I have upgraded to Windows 11.
