Firefox opens my smart phones front popup camera without notifying
Hi, I'm currently using a xiaomi mi 9t smart phone.When i was visiting this web site https://www.greenmangaming.com/intel-feature/playerunknowns-battlegrounds/pubg-game-modes/ via the google search my front camera was suddenly popped up and went down. Then i went back to the search results on google and opened the same link again it didn't happen.Then i cleared my browser history and closed the web browser and visit the above link again same happened. My phone has a popup camera so i noticed this.I have attached videos to show what is happening.Please take proper action on this situation.

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 this happening and this will hopefully be included in a future update. In the meantime, you can adjust this in the Android application settings by remove Firefox for Android's access to your camera and microphone.

Removing firefox for Android's access to my camera and microphone solves this.But some times i need this permission. So if you can notify the user for allow the access to camera when some website needs that, it will be very helpful.
