My take: if your camera is spying on you, there is a big chance that your entire device has been compromised. Ig that happens, it's game over and me masturbating to bdsm furry porn is the least of my problems. Especially now that AI video exists anyway.
It's all about reducing the surface area for an attack — if you do become compromised, it's one less thing to have to worry aobut. It would be preferable to not have to worry about your data and someone bribing you with some video footage.
