Recently I had reload Firefox on my phone. There is now button on the top right from Google asking me give them permission to use my mic, camera, etc. Considering Moz:lla's priority is privacy, why is Google allowed to do this?

Kind Regards TC

Hi

Arguably it is a good thing that they are asking you and on Android you have the option to decline. These messages are Android asking to be able to handle requests from Firefox for Android to access Android in the normal operation of the browser.

Helpful?
