Even though I agree with the general premise I have a few concerns: The existing VR / AR / 360 camera viewers / experiences will break (similar to the autoplay audio policy did on Chrome). If certain permissions have existed on the web for a long time you cannot remove them without breaking anything. I'm not sure if I agree with the proposal of @griffin2000 regarding a pop-up asking for permissions. I dread going to any news websites because as soon as the page loads I get bombarded with permission requests and I refuse them 99.9% of the time. If we want the web to be able to compete with native applications (think seamless AR / VR) developers need powerful tools and be able to create a user experience that does not feel like installing an app every-time to go to a website. In my opinion the web should feel like an open space to surf and explore, not a walled off section with border security. How exactly are advertisers exploiting these sensors in a way that is deemed so disastrous and unsafe that the rest of the people who try to push the web into new creative directions have to suffer? -- GitHub Notification of comment by TimvanScherpenzeel Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/deviceorientation/issues/57#issuecomment-459299115 using your GitHub account
