The good news is that these permissions aren’t too difficult to manage, no matter which OS or browser you’re using.
You can grant permissions to the sites that need it while blocking any others.
In Chrome , the first time a website needs your computer webcam or mic, a small window will appear just to the left of the URL bar.
In Microsoft Edge, when a site that you've not previously set permissions for needs the camera or microphone, a dialog requesting access pops up.
At this point, you can click Allow or Block accordingly.
The same screens let you see and manage which sites currently have these permissions.
A speaker icon on a tab indicates it’s playing audio, and a little x next to the speaker means the audio is currently muted.
When a site in Safari needs a permission for the first time, like access to the camera or microphone, a dialog pops up.
You can also control the settings for camera and mic access across all sites at once.
