Can covering up the camera with tape really damage a laptop like Apple says it can? How?

Won't do much, if their laptop is anything like their phones, it's taking an infrared image of your face every 5-10 minutes, works just fine through tape

Probably it can make the lens dirty, so it can technically 'damage your laptop'.

So yes, they clearly don't want you to cover your camera, but I don't know why.

I'd be afraid aluminum tape would scratch the glass/etc. I'd just use painters tape or something similar that's not super sticky.

Yes, preferably to mixed race porn, cartoons or gay stuff, but as long as you are wasting your time and energy on self gratification you are no threat to us glowniggers here at the CIA. If you would continue to masturbate as often as possible that would be really nice for us, if you imprison yourself willing in order to masturbate then you're not likely to be a threat to our global government and new world order. picrel is me on left

The point of using aluminum tape is that metals disrupt E/M waves. If you find something else that works as well, go ahead, but it makes sense to me to stick with aluminum tape if you have an IR camera.

>Designed to protect your privacy, Mac notebooks have a camera indicator light to let you know when the camera is on.
The people at Apple are really fucken dumb.
The hacker is monitoring your traffic and every site you visit, as soon as he detects that you open a porn site he enables the webcam a couple minutes after and catches you right in the middle of a wank.
Every webcam should come with a physical switch cover. Absolutely cover every camera you got.

Tim Cook is probably a major pervert.
He has access to the firmware of the webcam, nothing is stopping him from putting in a backdoor to access the camera without the light turning on.

Sure, the camera is hardwired, it uses the same power connection meaning that for the camera to turn on that power has to go through the light first, but like I said the has access to the firmware, who knows if a different voltage or something else can enable the camera but not the light.
I’m fucken paranoid, just put a cover on the damn thing. Fuck!

Apple produces extremely fragile products, a bit of tape could easily cause high stress in some area, destroying e.g. the trackpad.

Glass is harder than aluminum so it can't be scratched by aluminum. If Apple is giving that warning, the screen is definitely not made from glass.

If I don’t understand the tech behind how the camera works I rather just have it physically blocked when I’m not using it, and I’d blocked it anyway even if I understood it.
There are many different ways of getting hacked, like if someone has physical access to your laptop they can open it and remove the light.
