This warning from Apple appears, after several cases of Macbook screen damage experienced by users. Some of them use a webcam lens cover panel that is thick enough, so that it presses a thin layer on the Macbook screen.
Generally, the habit of covering the webcam lens is quite often done because users are concerned about the security of their privacy. One of the figures who often covers the lens of his webcam is Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
Summarized Tech Radar, Apple understands such concerns, therefore users can disable the FaceTime HD sensor embedded in the webcam. Even if users are still worried, Apple recommends that they do not attach additional protectors with a thickness that does not exceed 0.1 mm.
