doesn't a website need permission to use your camera though?
It's probably just a simple HTML tel link that is supposed to open a phone app so that you don't need to dial. But macOS and iOS opens these links with FaceTime if that is configured as your standard "phone" app. So it's not the website that opens an app with camera permission, it's the OS.
This can be quite annoying for web developers because HTML alone cannot prevent FaceTime from being opened instead of a normal phone app, as the OS dictates what happens when a tel link is clicked. This can easily give the impression that the camera is being accessed illegitimately, even if this is not actually intended. That's probably the case here. I can't imagine anyone expecting their customers to book a table in a restaurant via video call - that would be stupid on many levels.
I don't remember the name because it doesn't exist anymore and was stupid anyway (some artsy name like Pierololle or some other French sounding fake word) but I had a place want me to upload a picture of myself to reserve
I assume so the person booking has to be the one getting the table? So this isn't too far from possible, horrifyingly stupid an idea as it sounds
Does iOS default to calling automatically? At least on Samsung it pops the number in, but I still need to press the call button.
Alright so just another case where iOS is stupid but no one cares because people will keep buying Apple products either way... Cool.
FaceTime is a proper noun.
sorry I don't Apple
Right.
FaceTime is a thing on the OS. Clicking the link caused something that isn't dependent on the browser/webpage. It just openend another application.
That makes sense but what I don't understand is why it then immediately starts calling. Why would it do that?
Apple products are bad.
