I was reading an article on this site: https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2482412/netflixs-lucifer-season-5-is-bringing-back-mom-charlotte-in-a-surprising-way

Suddenly, my pop-up camera opened. This also happened to my phone yesterday while I was reading a news site (I forgot what it was). Is there a fix to this? Or if it doesn't have one, when will this be patched?

I really like Mozilla as my primary browser but of this keeps on happening I think I should go back to Chrome.

Hi

This is being caused by the website that you are viewing requesting access to your camera or microphone. We could keep this request hidden, but we think it would be better for you to make an informed choice.

We are working on ways to reduce the frequency of these messages and this will hopefully be in a future update. In the meantime, you can adjust this in the Android application settings.
