A privacy shutter selectively covers and exposes a camera lens on a computer device. The privacy shutter has a frame with an aperture and a screen carried by the frame and slidable in the aperture. The screen moves between open and closed positions. A fingertip grip has a low-profile dome coupled to the screen.

A camera comprises a camera lens, a privacy shutter movable between a first position in which it obstructs the camera lens and a second position in which the camera lens is exposed, and a spring that biases the privacy shutter towards the first position. A piece of magnetic material is coupled to the privacy shutter, and an electromagnet is operable to hold the privacy shutter in the second position by acting on the piece of magnetic material. The camera may further comprise a switch located on the camera to deenergize the electromagnet.
