Notification that Firefox detected using Camera in the background, when I received no request from Firefox to authorize this, and wasn't using any site action related to Camera/Pictures. This is the second time I have received this notification (from App Permission Moniter). Samsung Galaxy S8, Android version 8.0.0, Samsung Experience version 9.0
