What features have to do with encryption is this. If a browser asks a user "Do you want http://example.com http://example.com to be able to access your camera", what it is really asking is "Do you want http://example.com http://example.com, anybody on your local network, state actors, anybody between you and example.com, people who can mess around with BGP and your DNS provider to be able to access your camera?". TLS mostly makes the first question more truthful.
