Really, how is Apple protecting you from clicking Allow on a webbrowser if it asks permissions for WebCam and Microphone? I am asking since I do not have a Mac and really want to know how well are Apple users protected compared to Linxu users from web and microphone on browsers.

That's exactly how it works. Apple does the same thing everyone else does. But when Apple does it, it's "secure", and when everyone else does it, it's "insecure". Hope that helps.
