My new Macbook Pro video camera privacy solution at work I applied today. :)

And no, I didn't muck with the microphone. Just affixed this over the little camera lens. Got it here.

Leagues better than the ghetto technique of slapping tape over the camera!

The problem is, will it rub a mark in the aluminum casing near the trackpad?

One of my clients had this nifty little sliding 'hatch' you stick over the webcam that could be slid open or closed with the company's logo on it as a promotional thing. It was pretty cool, except my HP laptop has two rubber pads where the web cam is located so it wouldn't fit over my webcam.

I was a little crushed as it really was a nifty little bit of gear.

My laptop at work is basically a desktop machine with a screen. I literally never close it.

I did test it originally and it will close and still stays shut with the magnet.

But yeah, if it was my laptop I would do It because I close mine all the time (I have the exact same model MBp at home) and it would wear over time. Since all of my files are on Dropbox, I never travel with my laptop back and forth to work. Close my apps/files,, go home, open them and keep on running. Pretty posh.
