I easily get around this by point blank refusing to video calls for meetings. Audio calls should be sufficient, should be limited to the smallest possible number of relevant people and should have a clear meeting agenda and someone to drive it. I got a little pushback about it at the start of the pandemic and working from home, but since then everybody else in the meetings I attend (around 10 people for my largest weekly meeting) has turned their cameras off too, and we now get through the agenda much quicker. YMMV of course.
