Removing the camera (+mic) would certainly fix the creepiness for me - and make the problem you mention in the next sentence worse. Having a screen in front of your eyes 24/7 can only distract people. Having a camera and mic on it enable you to interact with your surroundings; and while not all apps will use them, it changes the focus and center of the device - thereby changing the way people interact with it.
