When I got my hands on an old Retina MBP, the screen was broken. I was able to source a screen from a second machine that didn't boot, but that machine was older. Many of the components were ever so slightly different (thanks Apple). The display cable fitted okay, but the webcam cable didn't fit. Just a few moments after I became annoyed at this, I realised - this is probably the best solution. I would have covered the camera up anyway. Okay, the adaptive brightness doesn't work either, but it's a minor inconvenience for quite a lot more security. My other laptop (a Clevo custom) has a keyboard shortcut that disables the camera as a USB device, making it drop off the hardware list; I'm sure there's a way around that, but it provides another hurdle to anyone attempting to invade my privacy.
