I have a OnePlus 7 Pro. When I bought it, having a screen without an ugly notch or hole was the benefit and having a pop-up selfie camera was the trade-off.

Or so I thought. And then one week I caught my camera quickly popping up and down when using Firefox. I searched around thinking there must be a bug. It turned out, Firefox had camera permission somehow. I don't recall granting it permission. In any case, it sure seemed like a rogue ad or JavaScript malware was taking pictures at random times. Who knows.

But I would never have known this if it were not for a physical camera that has to pop up. Today, I can't imagine having a phone that doesn't have this same mechanism.
