@MarkEmerson > users request to use our apps and they grant permission so why is privacy an issue? Service worker isn't behind a permission. Wake lock would be, but presumably it would involve some sort of persistent UI to inform the user that a particular app has a wake lock. This is similar to what recent Android versions do – they use a sticky notification. > we are consuming vast amounts of memory with streaming and downloading content more than ever. But that's very visible to the user. We're planning similar visibility with https://github.com/WICG/background-fetch. > Who actually complains? Users. They value their privacy and the battery life of their device, especially if these things become broken while the device's screen is off. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
