Not sure your meaning, but if you have a "smart" TV it has an imbedded camera. Personally I have a bit of black electrical tape over mine.
Yeah this is sadly true. When shopping for my last TV I'd say about half the smart TV's had cameras - it was tough finding one with the features I wanted that didn't have a camera. Also now there is Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa that seems to be built in to everything. I'll never understand why people seem so keen to rush and fill their homes with equipment that is capable of listening to you or watching you. Even if you don't think Google or Amazon are going to spy on you its really only a matter of time before these devices are hacked and used that way by someone or some organisation.
I'll put away my tin foil hat now...
