My straw proposal does not specify any UI. The ability to limit the permission lifetime could be done in any number of ways (in the "permission prompt, a global setting for the profile, etc etc") But capturing the _intent_ is not a substitute here. The spec requires / MUSTs that implementors provide sites with powerful useful-but-privacy-threatening capabilities. The spec should then also require that implementors make sure those capabilities aren't misused or harm people through readily foreseeable situations. Recording the intent sounds like a great thing to do too, and I'm happy to concede that my straw proposal may not be the best way to solve the problem. But _only_ capturing the intent does not solve the problem or address the issue either. -- GitHub Notification of comment by pes10k Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/geolocation-api/issues/47#issuecomment-652522781 using your GitHub account
