    Never seen one I’d actually trust for the mic, but I’ve seen a lot of Lenovos that have sliding covers for the camera.

    I’m a little reluctant to put an adhesive slider on my MacBook because it closes pretty tight and I’m afraid the extra thickness would create a pressure point and cause damage over time.

      The thickness of the privacy slider may be a concern, yes, and you can buy an “ultra-thin” web cam cover to both avoid screen issues and maintain your privacy. I buy Cloud Valley covers on Amazon. A small paper sticky note on the cam does the trick too and thickness is not an issue. Good lick! :-)

      BTW, I jist checked - my wife’s MacBook Pro has a plastic slider on the cam and it closes perfectly - no pressure point issue at all.
