<![CDATA[Opera GX uses webcam with its start.]]>Hi at all, one security program says me everytime I start Opera that the browser is using camera, the light of the camera remains off anyway.
I tried also to uninstall and reinstall Opera GX.

Is this normal or I should be concerned?
Thanks in advance.

I just posted the question on the forum of Kaspersky, the security program in question.

The setting were setted that a request of using the webcam was required by the sites before using it, then I uninstalled Opera GX and reinstalled it but the problem was still here, so I uninstalled it again.

What are your settings for use of webcam in Opera GX?
