I would like to be able to disable a camera (via a button or even better, through a scene as well) without deleting it.
Use case:
In winter, the nest cameras are disconnected and therefore return errors in the logs because the poll still occurs.
When we are at home, I would like to have a ‹ private mode › (no need for my children who are partying to know that we are too, and vice versa)
Some clients come discreetly, no need for them to appear on the living room dashboard…
Great need!! 
I accepted
You have the option to install a smart plug that turns on/off when you need it, and this ensures 100% that the camera is not recording.
Well, if the camera is battery-powered, it’s more complicated to cut the cable 
It’s more complicated than that… The nest cameras are on RPi0s and cutting the power is best avoided 
(by the way, can birdwatching be considered voyeurism?)
But yes, I could add MQTT etc., but that doesn’t solve the polling and error issues in the logs…
