> I’m still a little bit unsure what the purpose of firing the event would be over just returning “denied”. The purpose is purely compatibility. Sites already expect the empty event behavior because that's what happens on devices which don't support orientation, so the change is guaranteed to cause less breakage as browsers implement a permission requirement. > Maybe the question is: how much breakage is there if we don’t fire the event? It caused enough breakage that WebKit added a quirk. I'm guessing smaller sites (e.g. mobile web games) are either broken or fixed it after noticing. -- GitHub Notification of comment by reillyeon Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/deviceorientation/issues/148#issuecomment-2168853287 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
