Notifications are the most frequent offenders, in my experience, and it's followed by the Location one. It seems to me that they'll provide four individual settings one for each permission in order to optionally globally disable the relative one. I don't think it's going to be one button to kill them all though. I'll disable cam, mic and notifications, but I do share my location to some websites very occasionally.
- mikelward 9y agoYeah. But it looks like the way it works is you say "Don't ask again" on e.g. microphone, then there's no good way to deal with some new site where you actually want to use your mic. I guess the site can detect the permission denial. But making the website show browser-specific instructions for how to disable the global opt-out seems really suboptimal. The browser is where browser-specific specific UI belongs!
- gkya 9y agoWell I hope they'll add a way to whitelist for that. It's unfortunate that we need whitelists and blacklists for everything. As an irrelevant rant, I can say that I miss xombrero so much. It was so nice being able to have all your browser config in a couple files, in plain text. These days I'm waiting to see if the Next browser will become a viable option.
