For at least the third time in the last month, I have found a message in my Galaxy S7 phone's Permission History that Firefox has accessed my camera at an hour when it is on my nightstand and I am asleep. What the heck is going on?

The only hypothesis we can think of is that some advertising or malicious script has requested access to the camera.
