Black... nail... polish...

Solves every LED problem.

Xerox, why did you think the power led on your multifunction should light up not only my home office, but the room next to it too?

Black electrical tape is even better. Because then it can be trivially peeled off later instead of requiring polish remover and a brush.

Electrical tape sometimes leaves adhesive behind when you peel it off, so you might not be able to avoid using a chemical during the reversal process.

Yeah, but electrical tape looks like garbage. Trade off is aesthetics vs ability to remove easily.

There are various sizes/shapes of stickers intended to either dim or block led lights if aesthetics are important.
