- cozzyd 4y agoSomething like: "This web site is requesting access to 3D acceleration. This is required for fancy 3D graphics, but can also give the web site more information about your computer than it would otherwise, which may be used to track you, so only say yes if you are expecting fancy 3D graphics and you trust this web site" seems usable?

It also assumes the common person knows what 3D acceleration is (yes gamer types and graphics professionals know what it is but the average grandparent probably won't). 2) WebGL is being used for a lot more than just 3D objects now -- it's used for everything from 2D games, graphing libraries and even webgl-accelerated machine learning in the browser (like tensorflow.js).
