They can't? There's a setting in Firefox "Block new requests asking to access your camera" that you have to enable explicitly.

I'd rather have a browser that cannot access these things at all. Now I've to hope that the permissions work and the implementation is bug-free (my trust in that is quite low, browsers are too large).

If you don't select that setting, is the default to always allow, or ask every time? If the latter, then the setting is just a convenience for those who always expect to select "deny", rather than any broadening of permissions.
