- eitland 6y agoThis is beyond me as well but I chalk it up to our entire field being immature, which means there are endless possibilities and endless chaos. IMO background activity should need an extra permission similar to notifications and geolocation. But we need to sort out UX (and start punishing the companies that "misunderstand" GDPR to mean they just need to add another popup) as it is starting to get bad now. BTW, this needs to be fixed across a number of situations. There's no reason why I would want to allow a build tool to access all my projects just because I want to allow it to access one project. (Github and Azure Devops, I'm looking at you)
